Pause, All in Time

Why aren't they gone?
When I told them to go.
If they aren't gone
How did they know?

Stay on
Younger
Stay on
But slower
Stay on
Stay on
Wait
The wiser
Wait

Why am I not away?
When they told me where to go.
If I am not away
How did I know?

Stay on
Older
Stay on
Even slower
Stay on
Wait
Stay on
Stay on
The reward
Wait

Why aren't we gone?
When we know where to go.
If we aren't away
How did we know, to stay?
