Killing Time
Echoes of Redemption: E.Z. Shakes' Soulful Reflections on Life's Fragility
Lyrics
I was wondering where you were last night
I was curious about your whereabouts last night.
Sleeping under our candlelight
You were asleep in the glow of our candlelight.
I swore I hadn't had too much to drink
I insisted that I hadn't consumed too much alcohol.
Life's thin when you're living in sin
Life feels fragile when engaged in sinful behavior.
It don't matter if you dive in
Regardless, it doesn't matter if you fully commit.
It's all about the intention and knowing the costs
Emphasizing the importance of intention and understanding consequences.
Always thought that I was so strong
I always believed I was emotionally resilient.
Just a lie that I bring along
Admitting that strength was a facade or self-deception.
Votes are in and I'm just as weak as the rest
The verdict is in, and I'm just as vulnerable as everyone else.
Life was fast though the hourglass
Life passed quickly like sand through an hourglass.
Living young and we're dying fast
Living recklessly while youth fades away rapidly.
Sometimes wonder if we just missed the boat
Contemplating whether opportunities were missed.
I know you won't see me on the radio
Acceptance that one won't find recognition on mainstream media.
Just some fool killing time
Acknowledging oneself as a fool just passing time.
God shows his grace on those who get it wrong
Belief that divine grace is bestowed upon those who make mistakes.
Darling that's been me all along
Affirmation that the speaker has consistently been in error.
Darling that's been me all along
Reiteration that the speaker has always been in error.
Darling that's been me all along
Reaffirmation that the speaker has always been in error.
