I've tried to escape time
But it kept finding me
Hiding between the days and the hours
But the weeks and months kept chasing after me

I've tried to run
But time is faster than me
I've tried to cheat
But time didn't care
I've tried to fool it
But it wouldn't swallow the pate

So time and I have made a deal.
I, promissed not to hide
If time would promise not to chase me
We agreed

And once a while,
I let myself hide between the hours and the days
Wondering if it's still after me
I think it is.
