Erstwhile

On the Ones and Threes
Don't ask for the time, got no time today
Watching the kids idling away
Sprawled out sidewalk in designer clothes
Nothing to gain, nothing to lose

On eternal holiday
In the daytime, in the nighttime
All we need is yesterday
Through the turnstile to the erstwhile

Check your pulse, there goes the neighborhood
We'd go back in time if we only could
Ask me one more time to steal your life away
No one will ever know you were here

On eternal holiday
There's no daytime, there's no nighttime
All we need is yesterday
Through the turnstile to the erstwhile

Don't ask for the time, got no time today
Watching the kids idling away
Sprawled out sidewalk in designer clothes
Nothing more to gain, nothing more to lose

So check your pulse, there goes the neighborhood
We'd go back in time if we only could
Ask me one more time to steal your life away
They will never know you were here

Everyone is saying
There goes the neighborhood
'Til the travel time
Will be misunderstood

There's a place that's endless
Around the corner from our house
Until we find the way
We are night and day

Lost on TruTV
Sweating our disease
Look for a higher power
While killing all the flowers
Praying on your knees

No, we are not alone
All their eyes upon us
Beaming in the dark
The others are among us
See through our disguise

Everyone is waiting
For you and me to fall apart
As far as I can see
We haven't started off

Inner space is endless
In the prism of our eyes
Until we find the way
We are night and day

Cue the violins
They give heroines
Feel the lovers shock
When the bread is torn asunder
And we are left for dead
A cold and new beginning
Underneath our bed

Through the turnstile
We were erstwhile
We are night and day

Don't ask for the time (only you are the one)
Got no time today (beneath the moon in love with the sun)
Ask me one more time (only you are the one)
To steal your life away (beneath the moon in love with the sun)
Check your pulse (only you are the one)
There goes the neighborhood (beneath the moon in love with the sun)
We'd go back in time (only you are the one)
If we only could (beneath the moon in love with the sun)
Don't ask for the time (only you are the one)
Got no time today (beneath the moon in love with the sun)
Ask me one more time (only you are the one)
To steal your life away (beneath the moon in love with the sun)
Check your pulse (only you are the one)
There goes the neighborhood (beneath the moon in love with the sun)
We'd go back in time (only you are the one)
If we only could (beneath the moon in love with the sun)
