seven hours all I own
I spend it every night before
my debts through blood-shot eyes
never paying it off
get there at the same time
no matter when I’m leaving
time rush to destinations I don’t wanna be
countdown it’s the countdown
get back before you feel it
the world is in your way
on a ball and a chain
you're thinking
just stop thinking
that’s how you know about it
listening to what they say
always did every harm
embrace deprivation
delude and just don’t see it
get out and just pretend
that you’ve had enough
here come the bells again
ringing me to realise that
seven hours all I own
