Father Time Lyrics & Chords By Blind Melon

Have you heard about the mice?
They're making love, they're growing up
They made a pact to circle us

Have you heard about the snake?
He figured that he'd shed his skin
Slide away, again begin

It's easier to retreat than to face yourself
And let things fall in place
There's no words to describe the way I feel today
But I still feel okay

Do you think you look like hell?
It's hard to hug you from a shell
Give it up for the snail

It's not easy for the bees
They pack a knife to the job
They try to keep from getting home

It's easier to retreat than to face yourself
And let things fall in place
There's no words to describe the way I feel today
But I still feel okay

The human heart is there to crush
Father time looks over us
You'll miss it all if you rush

Did you listen to the dust?
It waits around without a sound
To gather us so listen

It's easier to retreat than to face yourself
And let things fall in place
There's no words to describe the way I feel today
But I still feel okay

It's easier to retreat than to face yourself
There's no words to describe the way I feel today
But I still feel okay
