The Secret Machines - 1,000 Seconds lyrics

rate me

I must admit it's a balacing act,

it looks dangerous,

that's part of it,

remember - don't look down.

Who am I standing in a crowded room,

we were pressed together,

but we're holding on,

like we're all there is.

That's all there was.

Then I flash the light,

We were drunk, we were having a fight.

Well, I was wrong, but that dont mean

you were right.

Then you played that song,

it was a thousand seconds long,

it didn't end, it seemed to play on

all night - as if I remember right,

I fell asleep there.

Rainclouds passed, and darkened more,

than evening touched by raining,

for the sky had burst.

Storms had gathered in crushing lives,

I surrendered to,

The way that I remember you.

And that's all there was.

If I were forced to choose,

What I have, I have to lose,

Well I need love, that dont mean

I need you.

It started with that song,

it was a thousand seconds long.

It didn't end, because we never got through.

And did you think that I had planned it all along?

Hoping not to be alone?

Well I was there, *under the edge*

with a blush.

And did you leave because you thought that I would stay?

Stricken with a holy fright.

And it was clear with the night, and the cold,

now i'll never know what you're afraid of.

And when the world ends,

a thousand seconds to.

we'll watch the time pass,

climb through the high and blue.

And then we'll wait there,

a thousand seconds to.

That's when it all ends,

a thousand seconds to.<br><br>Thanks to thudord
