Christian Landolfi - Tick of Times lyrics

Hands tick the time On your side: a tattoo of a clock And you perceive life slipping away from you Each step that you walk You take your time And time takes you by the hand It shouts “hold me, man” But you already know that you can't No, you're unable to do that So lock the door Punch the floor Kick the walls in your room Hold yourself tight in your arms With a fear that now consumes you He's lost his mind Takes the plaster off the wall To see a light, shining so bright At the end of the unknown [Pre-Chorus] I know that she burns Even though she's pure like a dove But how can you love somebody loving someone you can't seem to love? [Chorus] But hey there, girl We'll make it all sincere Won't you play a jam for me And make my sadness disappear? And hey there, child We'll get the atmosphere right Sing a blues for my dear [Bridge] She's lost her way Out in the dark, I see her silhouette It trembles deep Inside the ocean of uncertainty She needs someone to find the chest containing her self-esteem But it's stuck In the depth of her own neck [Chorus] But hey there, girl We'll make it all sincere Won't you play a jam for me And make my sadness disappear? And hey there, child We'll get the atmosphere right Sing a blues for my dear But hey there, girl We'll make it all sincere Won't you play a jam for me And make my sadness disappear? And hey there, child We'll get the atmosphere right
