I look at the candy cotton skies
And I worry bout time
Passing me by
How much will I have left
When I get to the left
Or should I go right
I’m not too sure anymore
How did this feeling escape me so fast
At the blink of an eye
It just disappeared
And now I’m back to being worried bout time
I wish that I could disappear sometimes
I wish that I could be on top of the world sometimes
Which one will it be
Which one should it be
I know it’s a privilege that I’m sitting here making my music
But boy it gets so hard to carry
When you don’t know how to use it
I look at the candy cotton skies
And I worry bout time
How it passes me by
How it passes me by
I look at the candy cotton skies
And I worry bout time
How it passes me by
I couldn’t escape it
I don’t know if I’ll make it
All I know is that I know nothing
I know nothing I know nothing nothing nothing
Nothing and nothing more
