It starts with one thing I don't know why 
It doesn't even matter how hard you try 
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme 
To explain in due time 

All I know time is a valuable thing 
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings 
Watch it count down to the end of the day 
The clock ticks life away 

It's so unreal, didn't look out below 
Watch the time go right out the window 
Trying to hold on but didn't even know 
Wasted it all just to watch you go 

I kept everything inside 
And even though I tried, it all fell apart 
What it meant to me 
Will eventually be a memory of a time when 

I tried so hard and got so far 
But in the end it doesn't even matter 
I had to fall to lose it all 
But in the end it doesn't even matter 

One thing, I don't know why 
It doesn't even matter how hard you try 
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme 
To remind myself how I tried so hard 

In spite of the way you were mocking me 
Acting like I was part of your property 
Remembering all the times you fought with me 
I'm surprised it got so far 

Things aren't the way they were before 
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore 
Not that you knew me back then 
But it all comes back to me in the end 

You kept everything inside 
And even though I tried, it all fell apart 
What it meant to me 
Will eventually be a memory of a time when 

I tried so hard and got so far 
But in the end it doesn't even matter 
I had to fall to lose it all 
But in the end it doesn't even matter 

I've put my trust in you 
Pushed as far as I can go 
For all this 
There's only one thing you should know 

I've put my trust in you 
Pushed as far as I can go 
For all this 
There's only one thing you should know 

I tried so hard and got so far 
But in the end it doesn't even matter 
I had to fall to lose it all 
But in the end it doesn't even matter
