This track delves into the constant struggle of time management and the guilt associated with unfulfilled intentions. The songwriter uses everyday examples, like forgetting to bring flowers or being late due to oversleeping, to illustrate how easy it is to run out of time. These instances reflect a broader theme of procrastination and excuses that prevent us from fulfilling our promises or tasks. The song also explores the realization that good intentions alone are not enough; actions must follow for them to matter. This serves as a reminder that time is fleeting, and we should make conscious efforts to utilize it wisely rather than making excuses for our shortcomings. #TimeManagement #Procrastination #ActionOverIntentions
Running Out of Time
Lyrics
Said I was gonna take some flowers to my neighbor
But I ran out of time
Didn't wanna show up to the party empty-handed
But I ran out of time
Said I'll walk the dog a little further than the driveway tonight
The extra mile
Thought I'd send a card with my condolences
But damn, I just ran out of time
Intentions only get you so far
What if I'm just a selfish prick? No regard, ah
I'm always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
Never mind, I hit the snooze on my alarm twenty times
But I was just so tired
There was traffic, spilled my coffee, crashed my car, otherwise
Would've been here on time
Shoulda, coulda, wouldn't matter, ultimate alibi
You know it's a lie
There was a fire (metaphorically)
Be there in five (hyperbolically)
Intentions only get you so far
(It was on my list, I swear I meant to get to it)
A harsh reality to discover, ah
I'm always running out of time
She's always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
Why we gotta be in a rush?
My watch is just for decoration, mm
Look, I showed up early for once
Now that's a new sensation, mm
We're always running out of time
She's always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
I'm always running out of time
She's always running out of time (out of time)
I'm always running out of time
