Mibm   Do#    Si    Do#
 
It starts with one thing
I don't know why  It doesn't even matter how hard you try
keep that in mind I designed this rhyme to explain in due time All I know
Time is a valuable thing   Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day The clock ticks life away It's so unreal
Didn't look out below  Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know  Wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though  I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when
 
         Mib                 Fa#
I tried so hard And got so far
        Do#                    Si
But in the end It doesn't even matter
     Mib               Fa#
I had to fall To lose it all
        Do#                     Si
But in the end It doesn't even matter
 
One thing, I don't know why It doesn't even matter how hard you try
keep that in mind I designed this rhyme, to remind myself how I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me  Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me I'm surprised it got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then But it all comes back to me (in the end)
You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I

But in the end It doesn't even matter
 
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There's only one thing you should know (x2)
