The bitter hand, oh so serene
The background clock, let the soundtrack sing
The remaining days, they ticked so slow
Stop it, rewind, and enjoy the show
As the hourgla** dared to fall in love with the grain, you heard my heart stop beating with a final sustain
With doors locked tight, windows secured
The serendipity of life falls to the floor Take me home, to where I am free, to where I can bleed, to where I believe
So Ive been told that is my heart is not made of gold, the silver has been sold, the bronze too bitter and cold
To ask me why, such a simple question, but hard to comply So dance with me sweet, sing me to sleep
Let all the other cares in the world drift away beneath your feet
Lets dream of those clouds in the sky that are far away and hard to find
Dreams worth fighting for might just come true
Thats when I found you Staple me up, and stitch me with yarn
Baby blue arms that glow with charm
Hold my hand, Im too young to understand
Too dumb to take offense, too broken for suspenseful walking lies
With my head on straight now, hear me cry
