Lyrics

We have all the time in the world
We have all the time in the world
We're two of a kind, you and me -
We stare blind and stupid
At a sky that refuses to fall

Two grown people sharing half a brain
In our many-splendoured vacuum we remain
'Til still asleep, we suffocate
Mutually masturbate
But neither of us comes

The future is now, boy
Let's get it on
And believe it: I'm leaving
I'm leaving
Don't speak my mind
Don't speak my mind
'Cause you don't know me at all

Instead of wasting time with the rise and fall
We stay grounded and never rise at all
Well, we'll have all the time in the world to confess
When we're dead and gone, and almost as useless

The future is now, boy
Let's get it on
And believe it: I'm leaving
I'm leaving
Don't speak my mind
Don't speak my mind
'Cause you don't know me at all

Don't speak my mind
Don't speak my mind for me
Don't speak my mind
Don't speak my mind for me
Don't speak my mind
