timescape - naomi sv lyrics

Loading...

unable to savour the here and now
waiting for time to collect what it’s owed
a hundred years would be too soon
the slow trickle can be so cruel

we just want more time
we just want more time
we just want more time
we just want more time
with the ones we love we love we love
we love we love we love we love

i begged time to stop the wheel from turning
to halt requisition of the debt that looks over us
to leave our threads unfurled and untouched
to my surprise, my pleas were harkened

the hand set down the scissors
and silenced the whir of the spindle
the wide world came to standstill
rain suspended midair

i’d had my wish but mannequins cannot
simper nor speak nor whimper nor weep
neither laughter nor lour
can chisel through their marble mask
love cannot be returned under the pause’s durance
and everything there is to cherish lies muted in abeyance

for stasis is just another death

it is easy to see only a thief
in its name we hurry
in its wake we bury
but time only takes what it gives
to receive its breath, we must obey its law

we are ephemeral creatures
we were always meant to be
do not fear the river
nor the deep blue sea
