You wear it like a skin 

This impatience burns within 

You've lit the fires well

Time waits for no man 



You think you're getting in

You've invested everything

Your patience knows not how

Time waits for no man nor me,

Baby, time waits for no man nor me



Your reach has grown long

Lines are stretched and skin is drawn

you never could see why 

time waits for no man 



With skin no longer thin 

Become accustomed to the din 

Of those you've stood upon 

Time waits for no man.



Time waits for no man 

Waits for no man, baby

Time waits for no man 

Waits for no man, nor me.



Salvation lurks within 

If you could hold it in your hand 

But you're a leper now 

Time waits for no man 



You wear it like a skin 

Disease has taken everything 

You've learned your lessons well

Time waits for no man nor me, baby,

time waits for no man nor me, baby 



Time waits for no man...etc
