It´s just a matter of time a figure of speech that springs to mind
throughout the day
As the minutes go by, a second thought, a moment lost, time ticks away

And everything changes
Forever never lasts (there´s)
No such thing as always
It´s all too soon the past

Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown

Raingods with zippos
A tin man´s bleeding heart
An end with no beginning (it´s just)
A race without a start
That you´ll never win, that you cannot lose so you fall apart

Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown

The tarot declares a motion made a finger traps an empty glass
The needles begin to make their mark, you try to hide, you´re leaving tracks

I dream of fire and water, dream of deserts, dream up plans,
Like mountains and castles they´re only grains of sand that

Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown

Raingods with zippos
A tin man´s bleeding heart
An end with no beginning (It´s just)
A race without a start
That you´ll never win, that you cannot lose so you fall apart

And
Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown
Tumbledown, tumbledown, tumble, tumble, tumbledown
