What Did I Do With My Time

What did I do with my time
What did I do with my time here
I constantly hoped for a revolution
Whatever happened to my limits
We only knew how to go back and forth without ever going up, up, up
When did I ever decide to
Fold myself into a big secret
What did I do with my time here
I don’t even know how to read your name
Where did you hide past and wishes
I wanted to dig them up for you
You claimed that the key was in my reach
But so well hidden
But I am not the searcher I once was
So you can keep it
What did I do with my time here
I constantly hoped for a revolution
Whatever happened to my limits
We only knew how to go back and forth without ever going up, up, up
Have you ever tried
To drown in fascination
Once you’ve learned to swim with your eyes open
Someone pulls the plug
And you’re left there dried out
On the bottom hand in hand with a stranger
But you work with what you’ve got
Assurance in the distance
But it’ll never be more than that
I can’t blame It on the blindness
For my eyes were open all the time
(No I can’t blame it on you)
(No I can’t blame it on you)
You claimed that the key was in my reach
But so well hidden
But I am not the searcher I once was
So you can keep it
What did I do with my time here
I certainly know how to waste it well
There is no justice in the outcome
But stories to tell my kids one day
