Father Time

(album: I Am - 2009)

I remain hidden behind my hourglass
Oh God, oh God
Does time move fast?
Father time will you rescue me?

My life is but a jukebox playing over the same sad song
Written out by a rocky heart

By golly holy cow
I choked the earth
By golly holy cow
I choked the earth
We're going down

The taste of bitter coffee fills my lungs sick
I have nothing to bare but this hole in my chest
And a page full of words that could fill the Atlantic
My sleeping eye can hardly see the words
Painted across these crippled stars
From the endless skies they are buried behind
From the endless skies they are buried behind
Buried behind

I am not immortal, but I can live my forever
And lay to rest when my song is sung
I am not immortal, but I can live my forever
And lay to rest when my song is sung
And lay to rest when my song is sung
I am not immortal
When my song is sung
When my song is sung
When my song is sung
