Father Time lyrics

[Chorus]
I take a trip by myself and write my name in the sky
Hang from the stars, I dance on clouds and watch the world pass me by
It's my escape from the dread that we all face everyday
We call it life, but in the end, we're all just dust in the grave
It's soundin' bleak, yeah, guess that's just the way it is
I can't fall asleep, so I lay here and I'll face it now
I'm comin' undone, fallin' endlessly in space again
Maybe I can find the will to finally find some faith again

[Verse 1]
Dug three feet, but I backed out 'cause I cashed out
But, it doesn't really make me proud
I been feelin' way too alone, no
But, I don't know how I can really make it show
Tick-tick-tick-tick, Father Time is right on my heels
I'm probably way too far gone, I don't think that I can be healed
Trapped in my skin, but I pretend everything's great
The rain pours, I feel the pain more, used to wash it all away
But it sticks around, my vision now goes dark, I can't feel
Anything but misery, my soul, I can't heal

[Bridge]
So, Father Time
Hold back tonight
My tired eyes
Won't last this time
[Verse 2]
I'd tell you, "Save my soul," but there's not one to be saved
So bring me flowers by the hour while I'm diggin' my grave
To the ones that mean the most, I hope I showed you your worth
'Cause I can't take another second on this desolate earth

[Chorus]
I take a trip by myself and write my name in the sky
Hang from the stars, I dance on clouds and watch the world pass me by
It's my escape from the dread that we all face everyday
We call it life, but in the end, we're all just dust in the grave
It's soundin' bleak, yeah, guess that's just the way it is
I can't fall asleep, so I lay here and I'll face it now
I'm comin' undone, fallin' endlessly in space again
Maybe I can find the will to finally find some faith again

[Outro]
So, Father Time
Hold back tonight
My tired eyes
Won't last this time
