time only takes

divided in cycles

we beg to slow the turning of days

fixation eternal

and so we live to find the escape

the measures we take

will anchor our soul-defining place

but time. time only takes

time. time only takes

our futures unfolding

we build our walls to keep it away

no sense in controlling

these hopes will fall apart as they may

the measures we take

will anchor our soul-defining place

decisions we make

tomorrow may come to shape our ways

but time. time only takes

time. time only takes

the measures we take

will anchor our soul-defining place

decisions we make

tomorrow may come to shape our ways

but time. time only takes

time. time only takes
