Conor Oberst - Time Forgot Lyrics
Polished my shoes, bought a brand new hatMoved to a town that time forgotWhere I don’t have to shave or be approachableNo I can do just what I wantI wanna walk in that howling wind ‘til it scatters all my thoughtsSit all alone on the river bank ‘til I forget that I can talkJust listenThey say everyone has a choice to makeTo be loved or to be freeI told you once I felt invisibleAnd I guess by now you seeThat what I meant is I’m not all there until I finally leaveSome loneliness is acceptable and some’s just out right meanIt gets evenThe ivy crawls up the garden wall builds a ladder towards the sunIt can’t be climbed but who’s gonna mind if I claim it can be doneIllusionAnd the sun goes down, and the stars come outThe distance that I felt, I can see it for myself nowBoarded a train to take my memories backMake up for time that I have lostI’ll never know if I’m delusionalI just believe that I am notI’m gonna work for my sanity, give it everything I gotTough so far I have cheated death, I know someday I’ll get caughtJust livingSo here we go man, it’s beautiful, get your trumpet, get your drumWe’ll be keeping time in a second line, it can make you feel so youngI know you say you’ll go all the way but that’s not quite far enoughSomeone told me that same thingSomeone told me that same thingSomeone told me that exact same thing once
