Clock says that it's time to go
But it'll be another hour 'till we're out the door
And I'm okay just sitting here growing old
Yeah
The place is fire when we arrive
And the early morning hours saw us survive
Now limits stretched as far as we could take them
Learning all the rules so we could break them
'Till we're onto something new
But we started something here
Among the ice cube wine and pretentious beer
We're aware what we've become
So we join the ranks of everyone
Eye to eye and skin to skin
Another evening out, another evening in
Reminisce of things not before our time
Friends of friends we have to lead
You see, the social scene was a necessity
But the conversation was dull
And growing old, yeah
If it counts, we're listening
The more minutes passed
The more embarrassing
But we would read each other through our faces
Sometimes esoteric in our phrases
'Til we're on to something new
But we've finished something here
Among the ones who cared and the cavalier
Our talking points were wearing thin
To an argument we had no business in
Representing not just me
And whatever you say, I'll agree
Leaving now and it's
Not before our time
Not before our time
A state of mind doesn't answer the riddle
If the place is packed, do we head to the middle?
And we'll do it again, and again, and I'm told
We'll do it again
And now we're growing old
We made the choices, it's our decision
And it's go, go, go
To hell with opposition
And we'll do it again, and again, and I'm told
We'll do it again
And now we're growing old
A state of mind doesn't answer the riddle (She's a happy ball of chaos)
And the place is packed why do we head to the middle (And I'm wrapped up in superstring)
And we'll do it again and again and I'm told (As fairy tales will often bring)
We'll do it again now
We're growing old
We made the choices, it's our decision (And she's out dancing in the cosmos)
And it's go, go, go
To hell with opposition (And floating in the solar wind)
And we'll do it again, and again, and I'm told
And we're growing old, but (Until the end)
Not before our time
Not before our time
Not before our time
Not before our time
Not before our time
Not before our time
