lyrics

Now I'm keeping time, or at least I'm learning how to
I'm taking flight, or at least I'm just about to
all the ways we can bruise are of use to us
all the things I have burnt, I have learnt their cost
and oh there's cracks in me
oh, the cracks in me
I've been braced by the ignition,
waiting for a command
Young girl, I'm tired of your wishing
and waiting has done me harm
I've done me harm

I was sinking in to lust like it was water
always juggling something I could not afford to
but I want someone who doesn't mind it when I stand,
I want someone who's funny looking when they dance
I wanna dance with them,
I wanna dance with them

I've been braced by the ignition,
waiting for a command
Young girl, I'm tired of your wishing
and waiting has done me harm

I want the time to pass so I am speeding down the road
I want the time to pass so I can move on and swallow this
and God, I want the time to stop so I don't have to grow old
