No Time
Frente Lyrics

you know you never know yourself
Often we live life with a facade, pretending to be someone we are not, never truly understanding ourselves.

all the years you've lived
Every year that passes, we still try to figure out who we are, and may often live with uncertainty.

you could be someone else
In such a scenario, it’s possible that we could be entirely different people than who we pretend to be in reality.

and all the times you've been alone
The times we spent alone in our head further complicates the confusion by contradicting our social selves.

all the lies you told
Lies that we end up telling ourselves or others along the path of self-discovery only serve to haunt us later.

now haunt your perfect spacious home
These lies created a perfect facade, but make our homes hollow and empty.

and now there's no time
The clock ticks, life passes, and opportunities fade away.

it's not such a crime
It’s not heinous to acknowledge that we no longer love someone, and it’s okay to accept the gaps that emerge.

to say you don't love her
It’s a difficult conversation to have, but it’s better to be honest, than to continue with the lie.

all those awkward silences over breakfast
The feeling of detachment surfaces in small acts, like awkwardness during breakfast.

as you fumble with your toast
The image reflects how much chaos we are experiencing, and how much we are trying to maintain order amidst it.

you know the magic's gone for good
We know deep down that something's amiss, and there’s nothing we can do to bring back the magic if we pretend.

little things get on your nerves
The once small and insignificant things have now become intolerable.

that never worried you before
These things used to be unnoticeable, but we are now hyper-focused on them, and they create an environment of bitterness.

and you swore
At one point, we swore that everything would be okay, and that we would be true to ourselves and our loved ones.

it would never happen to you
We believed our individuality would never falter, but time can have a way of changing things.

and you said
We made promises not only to our partner, but also to ourselves.

you'd always be so true
We pledged that we would always be genuine to ourselves, our values, and beliefs.

ba-da-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahh...
This sounds like an acknowledgement of the futility of our own words given our uncertain nature.
