Seconds Erase

(album: Sugar At The Gate - 2017)

Take a look, do you understand me?
I'm not one to let it on
I can't believe our time was here and gone
Is it just me are you lonesome?
Only for a second
Take a look, you remember why
Who could pretend the days don't pass them by?

It's too late, it's done, and what is left
When all you did was second guess
Holding on for nothing less
As you reset I retrace the steps

I could never hold you down
But I'm falling and I miss you now
Going on without you around
Watch it slip away
As you rewind the seconds erase

Close your eyes
Do you understand dreams?
Ask yourself what you used to see
You no longer need the night to fall asleep
It was like that when you kissed me
Only for a second
Take a look, you remember why
Who could pretend the days don't pass them by

It's too late, it's done, and what is left
When all you did was second guess
Holding on for nothing less
As you reset I retrace the steps

I could never hold you down
But I'm falling and I miss you now
Going on without you around
Watch it slip away
As you rewind the seconds erase

You can count the waves
But they'll hold you down
Soon you'll be drowning
In the color of lies
Is the color of truth
Who will you hound then
When they cut you loose
You can count the waves
