Jimi (Takes So Much Time) Lyrics by Martha Wainwright
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Sometimes I feel like there is no one
No one at all, that life is a myth
I won't be missed when I'm gone

But they say that you are no one
Without the people
Who love and know you around

And sometimes I feel like my dad
For leaving her sad and alone
In this big house

These are the thoughts that I have
When I'm alone at home in my bed
And I get scared

And it takes up so much time
And it makes up for nothing
And it takes up so much time
And it makes up for nothing

And some people ask why I can't
Remember the past

There is this dead woman in my lane
She's eating my brain
Her skin is soft and white and bright
Against the night

And there is this man in my house
When I'm not there
He says he knows me from somewhere

And it takes up so much time
And it makes up for nothing
And it takes up so much time
And it makes up for nothing
And it takes up so much time
Sometimes I feel like there is no one   No one at all, that life is a myth   I won't be missed when I'm gone      But they say that you are no one   Without the people   Who love and know you around      And sometimes I feel like my dad   For leaving her sad and alone   In this big house      These are the thoughts that I have   When I'm alone at home in my bed   And I get scared      And it takes up so much time   And it makes up for nothing   And it takes up so much time   And it makes up for nothing      And some people ask why I can't   Remember the past      There is this dead woman in my lane   She's eating my brain   Her skin is soft and white and bright   Against the night      And there is this man in my house   When I'm not there   He says he knows me from somewhere      And it takes up so much time   And it makes up for nothing   And it takes up so much time   And it makes up for nothing   And it takes up so much time
