[Verse] A piece of time that grips me tight It clings to day and haunts the night A clock that ticks but won’t agree A piece of time I can't set free [Verse 2] It whispers loud through silent rooms Its shadow wraps around the moons A memory’s ghost won’t let me be A piece of time I can't set free [Chorus] It holds me there where moments die A frozen tear beneath my eye A tangled knot in history This piece of time I can’t set free [Bridge] The hands keep turning yet they stall A broken rhythm guides them all Each step ahead pulls back to see The piece of time I can't set free [Verse 3] It bites the sun it drowns the sea It locks the door and swallows keys No matter where no matter plea This piece of time still cages me [Chorus] It holds me there where moments die A frozen tear beneath my eye A tangled knot in history This piece of time I can’t set free
