Far In Time
Mother Mother
He don’t walk along with anybody
He just walking with himself
She don’t stop to talk to anybody
She just talking to her own self
You don’t right a wrong for anybody
You just put it on your shelf
‘Cause I don’t get along with anybody
I just get on by myself, myself
We are so far in time
To be all apart
I could talk a lot of hot talk
At a potluck with my peers
But the walls at home, they got the right tone
Quiet, tender, sincere
A little ant hill go down the landfill
It’s a symbol of the age
Where the dying art is the sum of the parts
And apart is where we stay, I say
We are so far in time
To be all apart, to be all untied
From each other, each other
Oh, yeah, we are so far in time
He be living by himself
She’s alone up in her head
Are they alone or are they dead?
Just by themselves?
All by themselves
I don’t walk along with anybody
I don’t stop to talk to anybody
I don’t right a wrong for anybody
Not for anybody, not for anybody
But myself
We are so far in time
To be all apart, to be all untied
From each other, each other
Oh, yeah, we are so far in time
