Lyrics

I hear them when I wake up
I hear them when I stay up
They say if I'm wise
Quit while I'm behind

They say that I will lose this job
They say can't deserve this life
Certainly not you
And maybe that's true

But I can't fall apart yet
I don't have the time
I can't fall apart yet
'Cause my life's not mine anymore

I asked if I could see you
Tell you what I've been through
Sing my sad old song
All day long

But then I met a doctor who
Said that she has got the flu
I'm not confident
That I can save you

But I can't fall apart yet
I don't have the time
I can't fall apart yet
'Cause my life's not mine anymore

The wisdom of my teachers
They sound like wind-up toys
And the hooligans in the bleachers
They sound like Tolstoy

And I'm too foolish to care
About myself
But I even I know
Even I know

That I can't fall apart yet
I don't have the time
I can't fall apart yet
'Cause my life's not mine anymore

I don't have the time
And I can't fall apart yet
'Cause my life's not mine anymore
