Shatter the clock smash the ticking face
Trying to erase the lines the trace
Each second snaps sharp like splintered glass
Time a traitor dragging me back
Echoes crawl on walls you never leave
Fingers peeling shadows threads they weave
Eyes burn holes through the empty chair
Rooms warp still find you here somewhere
Cut the rope pull the plug tear it away
Let the static sweep all the ghosts in its sway
No need to replay those slanted reels
The fire's out no ash no coal to feel
Your name carved deep into brittle bark
Rust crumbles through where it left its mark
Bleach these streets clean under boots that tread
Still feel the pulse where the ghost stains bled
Cut the rope pull the plug tear it away
Let the static sweep all the ghosts in its sway
No need to replay those slanted reels
The fire's out no ash no coal to feel
Smokestacks rise up but the air stays thin
No winds to blow clear where you've been
Old maps unseen don’t belong in the now
Tear the sky let it fold somehow
Cut the rope pull the plug tear it away
Let the static sweep all the ghosts in its sway
No need to replay those slanted reels
The fire's out no ash no coal to feel
