By the Time I Live
If I ever get the riddle.
Of being stuck in the middle.
The meaning will have passed.
I guess my mind won't go that fast.
The paper ran the story.
The actor grabbed the glory.
Everybody bought a ticket.
When he told em' all to stick it.
It's never going to be the same.
They're always bound to change your name.
I won't bother trying to forgive.
I'll be gone by the time I live.
The after party was a big success.
Half were in a state of undress.
Nobody was the only one.
Who decided not to have some fun.
It's never going to be the same.
They're always bound to change your name.
I won't bother trying to forgive.
I'll be gone by the time I live.
