When you said that it never was for you
did you know it still would be for me?
Now you tell me we didn't mean a thing.
Am I flawed in my thinking, or were you there too
when we shared all the things I had to lose?

I know... you were only passing time.
You didn't mean cut me down.
I know... I should leave it all behind.
Right now I'm just not sure how.

Well I'm sorry if I've been out of line
but I see you in every little thing in life
and it makes it hard to live, and hard to breathe.
Still I'd take the last swallow of air I had left
just tell you how much you mean to me.

I want to tell you what you mean to me
But I know... That you're only passing time
I know I should turn away
and try to save myself this time

I know... you were only passing time.
You don't mean keep me down.
I know... I should leave it all behind.
Someday I'll find a way somehow.

I know... until then I'm just passing time.
Yeah I know... until then I'm just passing time.
