When My Time Comes - Dawes

There were moments of dreams

I was offered to save

I lived less like a workhorse

More like a slave

I thought that one quick moment

That was noble or brave

Would be worth the most of my life

So I pointed my fingers

And shouted few quotes I knew

As if something that’s written

Should be taken as true

But every path I had taken

And conclusion I drew

Would put truth back under the knife

And now the only piece of advice that continues to help

Is anyone that’s making anything new only breaks something else

When my time comes

Oh oh oh oh

When my time comes

Oh oh oh oh

So I took what I wanted

And put it out of my reach

I wanted to pay for my successes

With all my defeats

And if Heaven was all

That was promised to me

Why don’t I pray for death?

Now it seems like the unravelling

Has started too soon

Now I’m sleeping in hallways

And I’m drinking perfume

And I’m speaking to mirrors

And I’m howling at moons

While the worse and the

Worse that it gets

Oh you can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks

Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it’s staring right back

When my time comes

Oh oh oh oh

When my time comes

Oh oh oh oh

Well you can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks

Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it’s staring right back

When my time comes

Oh oh oh oh

When my time comes

Oh oh oh oh

When my time comes

Oh oh oh oh
