"Slow Cruel Hands Of Time" lyrics
"Slow Cruel Hands Of Time"
Bidin' of time
Gettin' stuck in my mind
There's a boat to row
Two hours later
Back in my neighborhood where everything just stopped
It still looks the same
They remember my name, steppin' in for a cup full
There's a big city man
I used to rumble with him back in high school
The slow cruel hands of time
Turn you into molten lava, oh my
Piece on the ride
You can stop for a while, look out for a policeman
There's no street lamps
Only three buildings and one of them's vacant
It's taking all day
The pack's feeling heavy and soon enough
Backwards down the mountain
The axle is grindin', pull into the wrong drive
The sky is in the yard
String cotton candy in the fall
Slow kind are hard to fall
Sometimes I don't want it at all
I've done this so long
Something I hardly know
Slow long
Finally up the pieces disrupted and the birds fly
Trapped for a moment
The sheriff's department got the wrong guy
The town is revealed the lone
Visible winds through the fog
The slow cruel hands of time
Turning you back into a child

Mumford & Sons - "Holland Road" So I was lost, go count the cost,
Before you go to the holland road,
With your heart like a stone you spared no time in lashing out,
And I knew your pain and the effect of my shame, but you cut me...
The Tallest Man On Earth - "Wind And Walls" Well, ‘All is well in order’ is what you thought you heard them say
and so you drifted off to see what’s not in yourself
Light is turning slowly will it lay out on the plains?
No more nights of what...
Patrick Watson - "Into Giants" Time was running fast
While we were walking so slow
As I watched us grow and grow
We carried our love in cups to go
Grew so tall our heads hit ceilings
Trouble seemed so small
Outgrew all the doors...
Bright Eyes - "First Day Of My Life" This is the first day of my life
Swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain
Suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach
Yours is the first face that I saw
I...
