lirik lagu jason webley – old man time ain’t no friend of mine
wake up in a room where steel guitars,
turn to steel bars,.
you know i’ve lived here to long.
try to write these songs about being bored,
why am i so surprised when they all prove boring songs?
the second hand holds still while the hour hand slips by.
i don’t know just how long i’ve been here.
i’ll just stare out the window and contemplate the sky,
while i grow older than my years.
plucking strings at the site of my bed,
by a stack of books most of which i’ve never read.
i want to capture in sound the way things are,
but i’d regret it in the morning if i smashed my guitar.
well they’re never going to tell us just what’s coming around the bend,
but there’s one thing i can count on,
that’s that old man time is not my f-cking friend.
for the reaper lurks in stillness, but motion too is death.
me, i float between them, moving in and out to the rhythm of my breath.
