Hanging on the minute hand until it breaks
Begging for a second more to heal our mistakes
I've been wounded by a love that wants to wait
Timid from a history of tempted fate
By the time you need me
By the time you want me
You'll be chasing shadows
And the echoes of my love through my heart so hollow
You didn't have to mean it
I just wanted feel it, though
Had your fingers in the cracks
Waiting for a cue to let me go
Victory laps and photographs to ease the ache
Pity is an awful sound that fractures blame
You're erasing history and cheating fate
While I make art of misery so you can hear me say
By the time you need me
By the time you want me
You'll be chasing shadows
And the echoes of my love through my heart so hollow
You didn't have to mean it
I just wanted feel it, though
Had your fingers in the cracks
Waiting for a cue to let me go
By the time you hear this
You'll be filling in the blanks with somebody else's name
By the time you hear this
There'll be nothing to explain cause there's nothing left the same
By the time you hear this
I hope you break some hearts
Take the pieces to fill your missing parts
