Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Facilitate this fall of August
The autumn winds, the summer forfeits
The bittern’s boom will disavow

[Hook]
All the time we’ve wasted now
All the time we've wasted now
All the time we've wasted

[Verse 2]
Fabricate this borderline
Between the fire and the focus
As the wren churr through the pine
I doubt you will ever notice
And I know I’ve got my stubborn ways
The shovelers soon fly away
While this winter moon will disavow

[Chorus]
All the time we’ve wasted now
All the time we've wasted now
All the time we've wasted

[Verse 3]
Formulate and fortify
The spring becomes our alibi
The eider’s plume will disavow
All the time we’ve wasted now
And I know you’ve got your subtle ways
The hooded crow is here to stay
But this idle June will disavow
All the time we’ve wasted now
