Frittering

I've seen you eat away

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

I've seen you chisel away

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

And you wonder why I leave so soon

How I get so high sink to the bottom of your room

I've seen you fritter away

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

I've seen you whittle away

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the spine

And you wonder why I leave so soon

How I get so high sink to the bottom of your room

I wonder why I stay

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

I've seen you eat away

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

I wonder what to do

Slow as a glacier takes to move on through the world

And you wonder why I leave so soon

How I get so high sink to the bottom of your room

And you wonder why I leave so soon

How I get so high sink to the bottom of your room

I've seen you chisel away

Hammer in place always in time

I've seen you chisel away

Slow as a glacier makes its way down to the Rhine

And you wonder why I leave so soon

How I get so high sink to the bottom of your room
