[Floating Hook] Time is moving without me I can hear it in the walls Nothing stays where I put it Nothing sticks at all (tick tick tick) It keeps ticking [Verse] I swear I just got here I swear I just sat down There was something I was supposed to remember Something I was supposed to write down Had it right there Right behind my teeth Then the second that I reached for it It slipped underneath Everybody keeps talking I catch half of a name Turn around for a second And everything changed I keep finding little pieces Of a life I recognize But I don't remember leaving it So far behind [Chorus] Time is moving without me Going faster every day I'm still reaching for the moment While the moment gets away Nothing's sticking Nothing's staying Everything I touch keeps slipping I'm falling behind I'm falling behind And it keeps ticking (tick tick tick) It keeps ticking [Floating Hook] Time is moving without me I can hear it in the walls Nothing stays where I put it Nothing sticks at all (tick tick tick) It keeps ticking [Verse] Calendar on the counter Three days crossed that I don't remember Someone says, "we talked about this" Yeah Maybe we did I nod because it's easier Than asking them again How many times can you lose a Tuesday Before you start losing friends?
