about

This is a song about a moment that changes everything inside a moment that's about to change everything...

lyrics

Wake up and spend the morning tying your life in a knot
Look in the mirror and tell the time to shut up
So you can think straight and draw that line
From the clock to your chin with a razor in your spine
In your hands

Tell your wife to take her shoes off and go inside
Tell your kids to think of every time that you were good
Take the calls you know you should, but the leave the rest now
In the rain, so they can watch you bury your shoes like a man

Step out into the light, let me see you; ready or not
Hold me up and tell me the sun won't set
and I won't care if it's a lie, I just need something to tell
To the time and to your chin with a razor and your spine
With your hands

Tell your wife to take her shoes off and go inside
Tell your kids to think of every time that you were good
Take the calls you know you should, but the leave the rest now
In the rain, so they can watch you bury your shoes like a man
