If you hide; the kid inside 
the more you live; the more he dies 
that's the cost of livin 
always taking, never giving 
Give up things, that won't come back 
'coz what you lost was all you had.. 
i look around to see 
is there anyone like me? 
I'll close my eyes and try to understand 
all there's left of my rock's a grain of sand.. 
Time swallows sand 
and year swallows year 
time swallows time 
and all the time it disappears 
time swallows time 
Float around, stay low and wait 
i close my mouth around the bait 
pull it when you're able 
i'm a goldfish on a table 
Believing things that isn't true 
there's a kid inside of you 
and you don't hear him crying 
but slowly he's dying... 
I'll close my eyes and try to understand 
all there's left of my rock's a grain of sand 
Time swallows time 
and year swallows year 
time swallows time 
and all the time it disappears 
time swallows time 
and year swallows year 
- i guess it does; it's this time a year 
All the time just disappears 
i guess it does; it's this time a year 
time swallows time 
and down the throat next year slips 
time swallow time 
and year licks it's lips
