I Won't Be Long lyrics - Beck

The time is almost over

The people are divided

So come a little closer

I try now I can’t fight it

Evoke the invective

Penetrate the malice

I’m counting down the minutes

From an hourglass full of ice

[Chorus:]

I won’t be long

I won’t be long, long, long

I won’t be long, long, long

Can’t you hear the catchy station

Coming from another car?

Broken recognition

No one has a clue where we are

Cause things are getting scary

We’re covered in a secret

Buried in voluptuary

Cause there’s nowhere else to keep it

[Chorus]

Oh so silently we go

Oh so silently we go

Oh so silently we go
