MAGNA-FI – Seconds, Minutes, Hours lyrics

She burned up just like paraffin
Fighting a battle she could not win
Like a blazing angel full of rage
Got no sense to act your age

What will I do without your world?
Every nerve fires around your word
Was I wrong to want a simple life, a simple life?

Drowning in an ocean full of childhood devotion
Where things just didn't work out like we planned
And I don't understand

Pick up your heels, it won't be long
Thought you were alright, but I was all wrong
Take this weight from your shoulders
We can stop, let the world grow colder

Just when I thought we'd make it through
Incoming batters us to blue
Don't be scared, don't be scared, I'm not scared

Drowning in an ocean full of childhood devotion
Where things just didn't work out like we planned
Seconds, minutes, hours
As the desperation flowers
Due to things that didn't work out like we planned
And I don't understand

I don't understand
I don't understand

Drowning in an ocean full of childhood devotion
Where things just didn't work out like we planned
Seconds, minutes, hours
As the desperation flowers
Due to things that didn't work out like we planned
And I don't understand

I don't understand
I don't understand

What was that thing that made you tick?
Tied around the ankle like a brick
What was that thing that made you tick?
Tied around the ankle like a brick
What was that thing that made you tick?
Tied around the ankle like a brick
