No Time

I tried to take the easy way
The easy line
To bury myself
To sit on the shelf
To bide my time
Now that the game is up
My cover’s blown
You count the cost
You’re wandering lost
In the fall-out zone
I learnt to live
Within the space
Between the lines
I can’t believe you did not receive
All the danger signs
I never understood
What took so long
Why did you fight
Just to prove yourself right
When you knew you were wrong
