lyrics

Go by the minute hand

Look past the hours
Depicting time much better spent
Leisurely waiting for the end
No true man cowers
At the call, when the time has come to repent
Set aside the things you represent

We set this fire
Now it's our responsibility to keep it under control
My head is burning with the images of consequences
We have acquired
As a result of our neglect
My heart grows heavy with the deepest regret

The damage done is never hard to forget

I will hop on that train
So quickly you will not remember
The colour of my face
My eyes like floating embers
I know I'll be around
For several more Decembers
Just know my heart will always pound
For this world

I'm trying desperately
To find some meaning here
In the constructions of man
My shoulders ache
The journey takes a toll on me

Can you feel it in your chest?
Can you taste it on your breath?
While it bleeds

and I am not afraid to be alone
Not that I want to be
I can count on my own two feet to get me home
Is that selfish of me?

Go by the minute hand
Look past the hours
Live by the seconds your awake

I will hop on that train
So quickly you will not remember
The colour of my face
My eyes like floating embers
I know I'll be around
For several more Decembers
Just know my heart will always pound
For this worlds natural splendour
