"Twenty Four Hours" lyrics

"Twenty Four Hours"

So this is permanence, love's shattered pride
What once was innocence, turned on its side
A cloud hangs over me, marks every move
Deep in the memory, of what once was love

Oh how I realised how I wanted time
Put into perspective, tried so hard to find
Just for one moment, thought I'd found my way
Destiny unfolded, I watched it slip away

Excessive flashpoints, beyond all reach
Solitary demands for all I'd like to keep
Let's take a ride out, see what we can find
A valueless collection of hope and past desire

Oh, how I realised the lengths I'd have to go
All the darkest corners of sense I didn't know
And just for one moment, I heard somebody call
Looked beyond the day in hand, there's nothing there at all

Now that I've realised how it's all gone wrong
Gottas find some therapy, this treatment takes too long
Deep in the heart of where sympathy lay
Gotta find my destiny, before it gets too late
Yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
