Can't Have It All At Once Lyrics - Beautiful Things - Anthony Green

I'm gonna put my palate down 

And rip the skin right off my mouth 

There seems to be a problem with the main connection 

Someone's torn the wires out 

Stuck in a place where all the teachers can't be trusted 

Everything revolves around their appetite 

Decisions become more abnormal 

The more attention it gets paid 

I'm the number one supporter of the first edition 

With all the original errors made 

Something started happening to the people I love 

None of them have spoken to me since 

The way they used to back when I was just a little boy 

It's different 

My pulse it is gone 

Rapidly beating the window 

With my hands 

It takes time 

Why can't I get anyone's attention out there 

It takes time 

I get too caught up 

With counting all the things I can't do right 

I'm just around the corner from the crucifixion 

Just around the corner from the crucifixion 

Something started happening to the people I love 

None of them have been close to me since 

The way they used to back when I was just a little boy 

Deliberate 

My pulse it is gone 

Rapidly beating the window 

With my hands 

Why can't I get anyone's attention 

(It takes time) 

Out there 

(It takes time) 

We can't prepare for war 

And prevent it at the same time 

(It takes time) 

Though I've chosen the sign 

I don't know where the line is 

Cause it takes time 

Can't have it all at once 

It takes time
