Color Theory ft. Bentley Jones - The Timekeeper

from Outside the Lines, Vol. 3 by Color Theory

/

lyrics

My wings vanish and I fall from the sky
Convinced that I'll die
Body frozen as I brace for the ground
And scream without sound
With a jolt I wake up covered in sweat
And start to forget
Big boy don't be scared
'Twas only a nightmare

Narrowly escaping
The siren's blare
The timekeeper wakes me
With seconds to spare

My Jerusalem in mortar and stone
Spy Jesus' bones
Dusty ruins rough like sand in my ear
The fables and fears
My kingdoms are songs
But decades are gone
Half old and half wrong
I'm only a son
And not yet a father

Seconds, minutes, lifetimes
In dreams erode
But when comes the reaper
The timekeeper knows

Nighttime shadows
Safe from harm
Savior from the rude alarm
Time jumps backward
Time stands still
Reaper moves in for the kill
