Lyrics
Flat and lifeless feeling in the morning
Muffled sounds are ringing in my ears
The stillness in this room speaks like a warning
It's telling me that I'm no longer here
Here wide awake, I'm not trying to escape the moment
Rose in my hand falls to pieces when I try to hold it
Now its time for us to part
But I know you are never weak at heart
So let me leave my mark
Sailing away on a time slip with you
Statues pass me as I walk this garden
Reminding me the strong are still at heart
The past is never kind to grant you pardon
As tears spill off the side of Noah's Ark
So few ever come to know
Time is not a line, it's like a sea that flows
I slipped and it made me see
Time's not now or then, it's the in between
