Conor O'Rourke - Time Stands Still For No Man

As every second passed by
I feel the hand strike into my chest
In sync with every heartbeat
Annihilates me

But time stands still for no man
Every line etched in these hands tells the tale
Of the life I've lost

Another second passes by
My lungs are tight but I'm still breathing
In sync with every heartbeat
Annihilates me

But time stands still for no man
Every line etched in these hands tells the tale
Of the life I've lost

Will I ever learn how not to loathe
My selfish heart,
These hollow bones
Cause I remember when I used to love
The smell before rain
The wind brushing my face
When this skin didn't feel like a cage

Just one stitch in time
I'm the dullest star in the sky
A beacon of dying light
The echo of a time
Where I once burnt so bright
