I imagine myself spinning

turning faster and faster

trying to keep up with the world around me

so fast, it might seem as if time has stopped

because that's all I want

I want time to stand still because I've spun so fast

I've achieved some kind of equilibrium,

that was never thought possible

But we are never still

in reality we are going so fast we don't even notice

and so I imagine myself standing still

dizzy and swaying from the weight of all that

pressure in trying to stop the world

and when my eyes come back into focus

all I want to see is you

because I tried to stop time for you

But I can’t

I can’t see you or hear you or breath you in

because that time I had tried to hold onto

spun out of control

and before I knew what had happened all

that time was gone

and I was left trying to hold onto something

I never could control

and that is time and that is you because

you are one and the same and now

and I am out of time

I still couldn't keep it for you
