It starts with one 00:18

One thing I don't know why 00:20

It doesn't even matter how hard you try 00:21

Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme 00:24

To explain in due time 00:26

All I know 00:27

Time is a valuable thing 00:29

Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings 00:30

Watch it count down to the end of the day 00:33

The clock ticks life away 00:35

It's so unreal 00:36

Didn't look out below 00:38

Watch the time go right out the window 00:40

Tryin' to hold on, did-didn't even know 00:42

I wasted it all just to watch you go 00:44

I kept everything inside and even though I tried 00:47

It all fell apart 00:50

What it meant to me will eventually 00:51

Be a memory of a time when- 00:53

I tried so hard and got so far 00:55

But in the end, it doesn't even matter 00:59

I had to fall to lose it all 01:03

But in the end, it doesn't even matter 01:08

One thing, I don't know why 01:14

It doesn't even matter how hard you try 01:16

Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme 01:19

To remind myself how I tried so hard 01:21

In spite of the way you were mockin' me 01:23

Acting like I was part of your property 01:26

Remembering all the times you fought with me 01:28

I'm surprised it got so far 01:30

Things aren't the way they were before 01:33

You wouldn't even recognize me anymore 01:35

Not that you knew me back then 01:37

But it all comes back to me in the end 01:39

You kept everything inside and even though I tried 01:42

It all fell apart 01:45

What it meant to me will eventually 01:46

Be a memory of a time when- 01:48

I tried so hard and got so far 01:50

But in the end, it doesn't even matter 01:54

I had to fall to lose it all 01:58

But in the end, it doesn't even matter 02:03

I've put my trust in you 02:10

Pushed as far as I can go 02:14

For all this 02:19

There's only one thing you should know 02:21

I've put my trust in you 02:28

Pushed as far as I can go 02:33

For all this 02:37

There's only one thing you should know 02:40

I tried so hard and got so far 02:46

Lyrics:

[English]

It starts with one

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

Tryin' to hold on, did-didn't even know

I 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 mockin' 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
