Ticking Lyrics & Tabs by James Harker
Ticking
guitar chords lyrics
Listening to the pendulum
Regiment my conscious
Commanding endless armies of the hours.
Marching to the kettledrum
The souls succumb to rhythm
Time beating down like rain upon the flowers.
Lights are blinking all around
To tell me 'stop' and 'stand by'
To tell me when to stall and when to brake.
To keep my eyes upon the ground
Until the mind is empty
Until the heart and spirit start to ache.
Imagine that the sky is down
It's up to the ground
The ropes that tie you to the earth
Imagine that the sky is down
It's up to the ground
The ropes that tie you to the earth
Lost in rebirth.
Could you veer fall this way
Deep into space?
Take your beliefs and thrown them away.
Herds and herds of emtpy words
Retire upon the pages
Grey prairies for as far as I can see.
Meaning curls into absurd
Of rightenousness and rages
Please tell me how to think or who to be.
And every word will spell your name
From here to Revelation
And form the signs that guide me to the night.
And if my end is in the flame
Far below salvation
Then let the fire guide me with its light.
Let me be a child again
Colours running wild again
Faith enough to feel the earth
Understand its real worth
Most alive in your dreams
Fire's kiss on sleepy streams
Open your eyes to another day.
Another day
Open your eyes
It's another day.
