Lyrics
Just a matter of time, till you run out of breath
Time is passing, and eventually, you will face challenges or limitations.
Money mountains you climb, never hedging your bets
Despite achieving financial success, there's always a risk involved, and you may lose it all.
But your luck can run out, you'd better watch your step
Luck can change, so be cautious and mindful of your actions.
Just a matter of time
Reiterating the idea that challenges or consequences are inevitable.
Just a matter of days, till the factory's done
Refers to the closure of a factory, symbolizing job loss and economic hardship.
When they shut down the lathes 'cause the work has all gone
The cessation of work due to economic downturn, and the indifference of others.
And nobody cares 'cause there's no-one
Highlighting the lack of concern from society when individuals face hardships.
It's just a matter of days
Reaffirming the inevitability of difficult times and challenges.
I know what you mean and I suppose I agree
Expressing agreement with someone's perspective but being preoccupied and asking not to be disturbed.
I'm a bit pushed for time, please don't bother me
Conveying a lack of time and a desire not to be bothered by others.
Take you guidance elsewhere, 'cause I've heard it before
Rejecting guidance or advice because it's not new or helpful.
In case is not very clear, I don't care anymore
Indicating a disinterest or apathy towards the opinions and advice of others.
Just a matter of hours until you're forgotten
Emphasizing the transient nature of fame or recognition, and the inevitability of being forgotten.
Your pushing up flowers, and you're used to the rot
Symbolizing death and decay, with a reflection on a life that may not have achieved much.
So that was your life, didn't manage a lot
Summarizing a life that may not have been fulfilling or successful.
Just a matter of hours
Reiterating the short-lived nature of certain situations or experiences.
I know what you mean and I suppose I agree
Repeating the sentiment of not having time for others' opinions or advice.
I'm a bit pushed for time, please don't bother me
Expressing a lack of time and a desire for undisturbed personal space.
Take you guidance elsewhere, 'cause I've heard it before
Rejecting guidance or advice due to its familiarity and lack of relevance.
In case is not very clear, I don't care anymore
Stating a clear indifference and lack of concern for others' opinions or advice.
I know... care anymore (repeat till end...)
Repeating the lack of care, indicating a persistent disregard for others' input.
