laid up above the road, i'll never know
where the finest hours seem to go
i just look out to space, me and my faith
i know that angels come from time to time
believe me, it's time to tell my friends i love them
they deserve more than hasty delivered words of kindness to them
i'm sure you know that
no, it's time to tell my friends i love them
these things take more than kindness
no, it's time to tell my friends i love them
there's nothing more we can do
i don't know when to go out
i don't know when to stay in
i don't know how to belong
i don't know where to begin
reach out your hands, where it lies is where it lands
take home the final arrears, it's the final arrears
join all the hands, take a photograph and smile
before the final arrears, it's the final arrears
and i've used all my tears
waste no more energy, no more time
step into this time machine, aboard this flight
time to go, it's sad that you are not here
to open up your eyes and watch me disappear
carried away
imaginations are running wild
when i counted up my demons
saw there was one for every day
with the good ones on my shoulder
i sent the other ones away
so if you ever feel neglected
if you think that all is lost
well i'll be counting up my demons
hoping that everything's not lost
