Time Slips

[Verse 1]

Oh let’s seize the night

Though no matter how hard I seem to try

Time slips just the very same

Through an open hand or a fist clenched

So I dance around a tune as the cosmos will me to

The future’s path is paved, we’re all just watching it all play out

Why is enough never enough to push that little button in the back of my brain?

[Bridge]

Time waits in the wings in

Between an action and inaction

Counting tree rings on a crafted wooden chair

How does one still exist when no one remembers?

Looks towards a cold, slouched moon moving tides on a planеt face

And sigh

[Verse 2]

Oh let’s seizе the night

Though no matter how hard I seem to try

Time slips just the very same

I always knew the moths would come and chew their way through the loose ends

Sedimentation, the blow’s coming around the bend

Static on a screen, it whispers to the spores seismically

Bury me sound asleep, the mounds of moss keep me in good company
