Need More Time

rock, Early-90s power rock: big distorted guitars, mid-tempo groove, live drums with cavernous snare, male vocals with rasp and range, Verses sit in a tight pocket, bass driving the root; choruses explode with stacked harmonies and open chords, Guitar solo digs in with melodic bends and sustained notes; organ pads sneak in under the last chorus for soul-rock warmth, soul, hard rock

[Verse 1] Alarm screams Coffee cold Same four walls Feel a thousand years old Keys in my hand But my head’s still gone I’m lacing my boots While I’m coming undone [Chorus] I need more time Time I can taste Not just pages Tearing away Give me one long night Where the sun don’t rise I need more time Before this life drives by [Verse 2] Boss on the phone Says “You’re late again” I’m stuck in this lane With a dead radio friend There’s a song in my chest Beating through my shirt But the clock keeps cutting Every single word [Chorus] I need more time Time I can taste Not just pages Tearing away Give me one long night Where the sun don’t rise I need more time Before this life drives by [Bridge] I don’t want riches I don’t want fame (oh no) Just five more minutes Saying your name If this is all If this is the climb Let me hold your hand Let me steal this time [Chorus] I need more time Time I can taste Not just pages Tearing away Give me one long night Where the sun don’t rise I need more time Before this life drives by I need more time Before this life drives by
