Tumbledown

It's just a matter of time a figure of speech that springs to mind
Throughout the day
As the minutes go by, a second thought, a moment lost, time ticks away

And everything changes
Forever never lasts (there's)
No such thing as always
It's all too soon the past

Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown

Raingods with zippos
A tin man's bleeding heart
An end with no beginning (it's just)
A race without a start
That you'll never win, that you cannot lose so you fall apart

Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown

The tarot declares a motion made a finger traps an empty glass
The needles begin to make their mark, you try to hide, you're leaving tracks

I dream of fire and water, dream of deserts, dream up plans
Like mountains and castles they're only grains of sand that

Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown

Raingods with zippos
A tin man's bleeding heart
An end with no beginning (It's just)
A race without a start
That you'll never win, that you cannot lose so you fall apart

And
Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown
