Lyrics
Sometimes it seems to pass so slowly
Sometimes time feels like it's moving very slowly.
That every second seems an eternity
Each second appears to be an extremely long period.
When waiting for someone to phone me - again
Impatience while waiting for a phone call from someone.
Sometimes it feels it's slipping away
There are moments when time seems to be slipping away.
It moves too fast for you to take it all in
Time moves too quickly to fully grasp and appreciate.
An adrenaline rush that all blurs to grey - again
An adrenaline rush that blurs experiences into a vague memory.
Now that I'm here in the moment
Being present in the current moment.
There's an abstract feel of a notion
A vague and abstract sense of an idea or concept.
Like speeding up in slow motion
Acceleration in a slowed-down perspective.
Like listening to a heart beat
Comparing the experience to listening to a heartbeat.
As I sit here in the silence
Sitting in silence and contemplating.
The world around fades to distance
The surroundings fade into the background.
And I am lost in a memory
Feeling lost in a vivid memory.
It lingers with such persistence
A memory that lingers persistently.
This conversation is just the script
The current conversation is like a scripted scene.
Playing out in a movie
Comparing life to a movie playing out.
And now I am the villain
The realization of playing the role of the antagonist in one's life story.
In my very own life story
Repeating the same mistakes over and over.
The same mistakes repeatedly
Mistakes are repeated without mercy.
Play for me without mercy
An endless cycle of guilt.
And endlessness of guilty
Thoughts of guilt that continue to haunt.
Thoughts that will still haunt me
Reflection on familiar experiences and recurring thoughts.
Sometime it feels I've been here before
A sense of déjà vu, feeling like being in the same situation before.
Familiar ground, the words never change
Familiar ground, but the words and circumstances remain unchanged.
I say these lines over and over again
Repetition of certain lines or phrases in life.
And time, she makes me old
Time ages and wears down the individual.
And time, she makes me run
Time prompts the need to run or escape.
And time, she makes me realise
Realization dawns about reaching a point of conclusion or completion.
I'm done
A sense of being finished or done with a particular phase.
And time, she makes me cold
Time has a chilling effect on emotions and experiences.
And time, she makes me young
Time has the power to make one feel young again.
And time, she makes me realise
Realization that time brings understanding or victory.
I've won
Achieving a sense of triumph or success through time.
