Time Consumer Songtext
von Coheed and Cambria

The young stale memories of play the role to your part
Librarian find me the pole, the one that kicks your head in
To my own time, roll your own innocence by
Grab on to my sleeve, the one that grabs at your ankle!

Debate to understand that we all have a flaw
Then fail to represent your life as you know it
God grant you one wish to turn back the time
Correct and create, making sense of

Me and my star, Matthew, goodnight
You know by law when you′ll be forgiven
Maria, my star, Matthew, goodnight
You know by Lord when you'll be forgiven

So they pulled your confidence down with those verbal discrepancies
Now and then you′ll gain what they've lost through a challenge of unpronounced
Pain is only a pulse if you just stop feeling it
You might be able to use the very things that make us up


Me and my star, Matthew, goodnight
You know by law when you'll be forgiven
Maria, my star, Matthew, goodnight
You know, my lord-

Wait, now, here when will you believe me?
I′m merely asking you to help me
When did I say to murder?
Wait, now, here please hear me out
Time consumer, time consuming, consume me
Down and out now

Me and my star, Matthew, goodnight
You know by law when you′ll be forgiven
Maria, my star, Matthew, goodnight
You know by Lord when you'll be forgiven

Na-ha-ha-ha, ah
Na-ha-ha-ha-ha, you know
Tonight, in the promise you write

Na-ha-ha-ha, ah
Na-ha-ha-ha-ha, you know
Goodnight, in the promise you write
