One thing

I don't know why

it doesn't even matter

how hard you try

Keep that in mind

I designed this rhyme

to explain in due time

All I know

time is a valuable thing

watch it fly by

as the pendulum swings

Watch it count down

to the end of the day

the clock ticks life away

It's so unreal

didn't look out below

watch the time go

right out the window

Try'na hold on

but you

didn't even know

but wasted it all

just to watch you go

I kept everythin' inside

and even though I tried

it all fell apart

what it meant to me will

eventually be a memory

of a time when

I tried so hard

and got so far

but in the end

it doesn't even matter

I had to fall

to lose it all

but in the end

it doesn't even matter

One thing

I don't know why

it doesn't even matter

how hard you try

Keep that in mind

I designed this rhyme

to remind myself how

I tried so hard

In spite of the way

you were mockin' me

actin' like I was part

of your property

Rememberin' all the

times you fought with me

I'm surprised it got so

Things aren't the way

they were before

you wouldn't even

recognise me anymore

Not that you

knew me back then

but it all

comes back to me

in the end

You kept everythin' inside

and even though I tried

it all fell apart

what it meant to me will

eventually be a memory

of a time when

I tried so hard

and got so far

but in the end

it doesn't even matter

I had to fall

to lose it all

but in the end

it doesn't even matter

I've put my trust in you

pushed as far as I can go

for all this

there's only one thing

you should know

I've put my trust in you

pushed as far as I can go

for all this

there's only one thing

you should know

I tried so hard

and got so far

but in the end

it doesn't even matter

I had to fall

to lose it all

but in the end

it doesn't even matter
