More Time

Where does the time go
it disappears so fast
before you even realize it
everything is in the past

The future of time is speed
is that what we really need
The more time you have 
the less time you share
Too little time the more you spare

For something eternal there never seems enough
For more time how do you make that stuff
Time is wasted time is money
Time is saved and time is funny
When it is your time to go
And you feel it and you know
Just a little more time you need
For goodbyes to say and loved ones to see


Is it a sin to selfishly stay
to live life void and waste it away
to never reach to never be
to never dream to never see
Having all the time you didn't need
while others for more time plea
Greeting hello, saying goodbye
Time to live and time to die
No more time you ran out
With time of that there is no doubt.
