all the people (song)

by india southgate.

 
all the people in the city
they try on a thousand lives
a hundred souls and infinate time
you go to work
i'll stay here and lie
o time
o time
all i ask is for the future to wait
let me ask my questions
do they see me?
are they thinking of time?
do they know what happens at night?
o time
o time
o time
o time
do they wait stuck in their minds?
are they all thinking the same?
o time
look away
o time
not today
o time
you can wait
