Story Behind The Song
We all wish we could have spent certain amounts of time differently.
Song Description
Time is something that we can never have enough of, and never gain. This song is a heavy, soulful jam, soaked in a lot of reverb that takes a look for the perspective of a man who is at a point in life where he is deeply concerned with the loss of time.

Lyrics
Those Who Worked
Well I couldn't tell you, for the life of me, what happened to all of my time
Anyone who knows the answers is scarce to find
While the world was on the same page, I somehow got left behind
Well I couldn't tell you what happened to all of my time
Well I couldn't tell you, for the life of me, what happened to all of my days
Anyone I've ever cared for has run away
Yeah I once was running with them, but now lonely has come to stay
Well I couldn't tell you what happened to all of my days
Yeah I couldn't tell you, for the life of me, what happened to all of my friends
All the good times came so swiftly to an end
They were once here singing with me, but now the music has gotten so dead
Well I couldn't tell you what happened to all of my friends
Well I couldn't tell you, for the life of me, what happened to all of my time
It seemed so much more wisely managed in my mind
Yeah I let her through my fingers, now she's someone else's bride
Well I couldn't tell you what happened to all of my time
