Honey, I know I'm moving too fast Walking over water, walking over stained glass Little white sparrows overhead Fast as they fly away from here, baby I'd as soon be dead All life, hillsides being torn down Losing my mind, buildings all around It's too late, it's too late, I ain't gonna wait around Honey, I'll be gone before the nightfall Honey, I'll be gone before the nightfall Polish off some Ballantines and chase it with some gin Ten thousand scaffolds holding half a million kids I reached to grab a glowing rose but instead I burned my hand It was just a thousand months covering a light Hoping that they'd found land Life could be a luxury if life forfeited time Because all that time has done to me is give then take what's mine It's not mine, it's not mine, I ain't gonna waste more time Honey, I'll be gone before the nightfall Honey, I'll be gone before the nightfall Honey, I'll be gone before the nightfall Honey, I'll be gone before the nightfall Honey, I'll be gone before the nightfall Honey, I'll be gone before the nightfall Honey, I'll be gone before the nightfall
