    Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
    You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
    Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
    Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

    Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
    You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
    And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
    No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

    And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but its sinking
    And racing around to come up behind you again
    The sun is the same in the relative way, but you're older
    Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

    Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
    Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
    Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
    The time is gone, the song is over, thought Id something more to say

    Home, home again
    I like to be here when I can
    And when I come home cold and tired
    It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
    Far away across the field
    The tolling of the iron bell
    Calls the faithful to their knees
    To hear the softly spoken magic spells.

    Much the same way a watched kettle never boils but posting on CUK makes the day fly past. I barely have time to open Visual Studio it goes by so quickly.

    As a being that perceives time as linear there will be a finite amount - just the right amount between start and end

    No - love and money more than time - unless I have seconds to live in which case I reserve the right to change my mind

    Time exists and helps to facilitate our understanding, but because we perceive it in one way doesn't mean that's the only way.

    or, according to early - Aladdin Sane -Bowie

    "Time flexes like a wh-ore, falls wa-nking to the floor" Not sure how THAT works

    The perception of time is subjective.

    I often wish I was a fly, firstly so the day would last a lot longer as it would all be slowed down, and secondly so I might enjoy my own cooking which admittedly tastes like tulip.

    Yes, sometimes too much,
    No
    Time is imaginary
