Time Lyrics by Carter James

Time (Single) (artist: Carter James)

2020

Time
Carter James

(Intro)
Be on time

(Chorus)
You’ve got a nasty habit of throwing me to the side
And I don’t wanna be annoying but it’s after five
Thought we agreed that we would value both each other’s time?
I’ve been doing good, you don’t even try
I wouldn’t care but i feel like i’m about to die
Every second is a struggle to survive
If you care about me be on time

(Verse)
Do you see me in the parking lot?
I’ve been huddled here for hours
Too long to count
It’s probably six by now

Do you hear me, should i make a sound?
I’ve been waiting for a while
You’re giving me doubts
So i gotta remind myself

(Chorus)
You’ve got a nasty habit of throwing me to the side
And I don’t wanna be annoying but it’s after five
Thought we agreed that we would value both each other’s time?
I’ve been doing good, you don’t even try
I wouldn’t care but i feel like i’m about to die
Every second is a struggle to survive
If you care about me be on time

(Verse)
Lately i’ve been feeling overwhelmed
To be honest it’s a lot
Look what i got
Depression and an astronaut

I don’t wanna make it about myself
But i’m learning to be loved
Everyone talks
Yet barely anyone shows up

(Chorus)
You’ve got a nasty habit of throwing me to the side
And I don’t wanna be annoying but it’s after five
Thought we agreed that we would value both each other’s time?
I’ve been doing good, you don’t even try
I wouldn’t care but i feel like i’m about to die
Every second is a struggle to survive
If you care about me be on time

(Bridge)
Be on time x8

(Chorus)
You’ve got a nasty habit of throwing me to the side
And I don’t wanna be annoying but it’s after five
Thought we agreed that we would value both each other’s time?
I’ve been doing good, you don’t even try
I wouldn’t care but i feel like i’m about to die
Every second is a struggle to survive
If you care about me be on time
