Things speed out of date Now you can be falling And when you're up it's blown up With all new buildings painted they're not your colors And all the places you went to you don't get what they offer But hey that's Nathan and didn't he pass a long time ago? Where'd he go? We exorcised the weekend Now all the demons can't play but they snuck into Thursday We're looking out for Pantha from the road again But didn't they pass a long time ago? Where'd they go? Luck It's not real Oh it's real No it's not real Maybe it's only real when lightning landed and hit you right where you were standing Or when your imagination shows you what only time's supposed to tell you And then I imagine time he's got real big hands and bigger plans From a long time ago And did I remember suitcasing all the things in my head And all the expectations of doing something special I could be gone today But where do they take me? Luck It's not real Though my feelings say it's real Maybe it's only real when someone blinds you When they had always been so kind to you Imagination won't get moldy can't wait for time to unfold me And then I imagine time he's got real big hands and bigger plans From a long time ago There are none too small </lyrics> [[Category:Songs]]
