[Verse 1]

A stitch in time saves nine in time

To stay alive 'cause we are so divine

In my mind I can't stop dying

I wish there was no stopping me now

In the hope I'm to grow old

I've been told to keep my head down to the ground

It's like standing in the playground looking at the ground

Trying not to notice all the kids around


[Chorus]

The will to be kind is mine

But that's the way we all go

The people subsiding are always advising

That that's the way we all go


[Verse 2]

Calling is craving is letting the rain in

It peers at me and is it understanding? Ha!

Holding me with all its derelict charm

Rushing round me and slipping but never falling down!

"Give me something I don't need"

My friend cried 'till his face bled really really red

It stays here all my life, it fears towards me


[Chorus]

A stitch in time saves nine in time

But that's the way we all go

The higher the chances, the higher the climb

That's the way we all go

Is everybody happy?


[Instrumental Interlude 2:02 - 4:24]


[Chorus]

Ah, but I'm lost not for words or for kindness or sympathy

That's the way we all go

There's thousands of people just like me all over

But that's the way we all go

That's the way we all go

That's the way we all go

That's the way we all go

That's the way we all go

That's the way we all


[Outro]

My hope day is forever coming closer

My hopes and fears are uncommon and it's he

Who asks for me now

So I'll stay here until it's saving my life

Sing la la la la la la la

I'd say
