[Verse 1]
I've played the song
Now it drives me crazy
I've run the race
Now I'm too damn lazy
This love of ours
Is a fading photograph
Yeah-heah, yeah-heah

[Pre-Chorus]
Now am I supposed to
Laugh today
Seems a little different
Hard to say
But it looks like the end

[Chorus]
Time's up
Promise this time I'm getting off
Better we slam the door shut
Didn't you know if nothing changes
Nothing changes
Time's up
Promise this time I'm getting off
Better we turn the lights off
Love is a train
We wait for it
Even when it's gone

[Verse 1]
We've surfed the wave
Now we've hit the shore
And we've squeezed the fruit
Till there's no more juice left
We're both so good
Good at keeping up the lie
Yeah-heah, yeah-heah

[Pre-Chorus]
Hey but no one's got to
Die, we can
Get it in prospective
Kiss my lips
Life is what we make it

[Chorus]
Time's up
Promise this time I'm getting off
Better we slam the door shut
Didn't you know if nothing changes
Nothing changes
Time's up
Promise this time I'm getting off
Better we turn the lights off
Love is a train
We wait for it
Even when it's gone

[Bridge]
As I'm waving you goodbye
I want you to smile
Save a picture in your frame
File it right next to my name

I'm willing to die
For love willing to try
But not willing to lie for love
I know that this cake's already baked
Now its burning, burning

We can
Get it in prospective
Kiss my lips
Life is what we make it

[Chorus]
Time's up
Promise this time I'm getting off
Better we slam the door shut
Didn't you know if nothing changes
Nothing changes
Time's up
(even when it's gone)
Promise this time I'm getting off
(even when it's gone)
Better we turn the lights off
Love is a train
We wait for it
Yeah yeah yeah
Even when it's gone
Even when it's gone
If nothing changes
Nothing changes
Time's up
(even when)
Promise this time I'm getting off
(even when)
Better we turn the lights off
Love is a train
We wait for it
Even when it's gone

Katy Perry

Katheryn Elizabeth “Katy” Hudson (born October 25, 1984), known by her stage name Katy Perry, is an American singer, songwriter, businesswoman, philanthropist, and actress. She was born and raised in Santa Barbara, California. Having had very little exposure to mainstream pop music in her childhood, she pursued a career in gospel music as a teen and released her debut self-titled studio album in 2001. She also recorded a second solo album in 2005, (A) Katy Perry, which was scrapped.

Afterwards, Perry (her mother’s maiden name, taken to avert confusion with Kate Hudson) reinvented herself as a party girl pop star, breaking out with 2008’s One of the Boys and the #1 hits “I Kissed a Girl” and “Hot n Cold”.

Follow-up Teenage Dream (2010) equalled Michael Jackson’s record of five chart-toppers on the same album, and made Perry even more ubiquotous in the pop landscape. Following her marriage and eventual divorce from British comedian Russell Brand, she released an updated version, Teenage The Complete Confection and concert film Katy Part of Me in 2012. She released her fourth album, Prism, in 2013, along with some standalone singles, such as “Rise”.
