Lost (in time) [Radio Edit]

Time slips through fingers like smoke. We chase it, waste it, never hold it

And all the while it folds back on itself, time after time

There's a clock on the wall that doesn't tick for me, just sways like a pendulum lost at sea

I do not count hours, I count what I missed, moments I lived through but never gave

I held the morning, let the evening fall, time doesn't answer, it doesn't call

Time slips like smoke through the seams of a dream, like rain in a memory I can't quite believe

It's here, and it's now, a whisper I forgot

I tried to bottle it, label it gold, all the small yesterdays I couldn't hold

But time doesn't care for jars or nails, it leaves the room the moment it came

Time slips like smoke through the seams of a dream, like shadows on walls that do not mean a thing

It's here, and it's now, a whisper I forgot

And still I chase the clock, we chase it

So strange

So strange

So strange
