"matter of time" lyrics

ALINA Lyrics

"matter of time"

You are a delicate thing, I know
Tangled up in wanting a continuum
All that you're asking I don't think I can quite deliver
I grew to be monstrous and sorta tall
Taking and taking, then losing it all
Now that I'm older I'm starting to mind it
Starting to lose my mind to a fire I started
Constant, haunting me
The sirens, getting louder by the minute
I hate this certain feeling

When I don't know
Can't read your mind
I can't see the future
But it's a matter of time

Working with inevitability
Is this even what I want or where I'm supposed to be?
If you're leaving
You'll be leaving with a piece of me
Leaving with a piece of this whole fire I founded
I'm surrounded
My regrets will coincide with why I did this
With my heart as my witness

When I don't know
Can't read your mind
I can't see the future
But it's a matter of time
I am wrong a lot more than I'm right
But I can't fight this feeling
That it's a matter of time

It's a fire I started
It's a fire I started
It's a fire I started
It's a fire I started
