Time Stolen
When I got the call, it hit me deep
But I still couldn't cry
I thought that I, would get a chance
To make things right before you died
I know you wondered at, wanted to fix
What you left hanging by a thread
But your letters sat, in a drawer unread
Walled off by my dread
This life, like a spider web
Balanced high, in the blowing wind
Time stolen, our hearts become a prison cell
For the risks we don't take
Bitten by a black widow, strong venom from an hourglass
Time stolen, our heads become a prison cell
For the love we don't make
In a photograph, you took us camping
In the wilderness
You were sifting sand, through your hands
As you taught me to build a fire
And when hiking the plains, the far-off mountains
Look so close in the heat
In my memory, you were superhuman
A mirage a deceit
This life, like a spider web
Balanced high, in the blowing wind
Time stolen, our hearts become a prison cell
For the risks we don't take
Bitten by a black widow, strong venom from an hourglass
Time stolen, our heads become a prison cell
For the love we don't make
Time weaves these webs
Take those risks cause there's no escape
There's a poison
Coming slowly for our hearts
Our hearts
Coming slowly for our hearts
Our hearts...
This life, like a spider web
Balanced high, in the blowing wind
Time stolen, our hearts become a prison cell
For the risks we don't take
Bitten by a black widow, strong venom from an hourglass
Time stolen, our heads become a prison cell
For the love we don't make
This life, like a spider web
Balanced high, in the blowing wind
Time stolen, our hearts become a prison cell
For the risks we don't-
But I still couldn't cry
I thought that I, would get a chance
To make things right before you died
I know you wondered at, wanted to fix
What you left hanging by a thread
But your letters sat, in a drawer unread
Walled off by my dread
This life, like a spider web
Balanced high, in the blowing wind
Time stolen, our hearts become a prison cell
For the risks we don't take
Bitten by a black widow, strong venom from an hourglass
Time stolen, our heads become a prison cell
For the love we don't make
In a photograph, you took us camping
In the wilderness
You were sifting sand, through your hands
As you taught me to build a fire
And when hiking the plains, the far-off mountains
Look so close in the heat
In my memory, you were superhuman
A mirage a deceit
This life, like a spider web
Balanced high, in the blowing wind
Time stolen, our hearts become a prison cell
For the risks we don't take
Bitten by a black widow, strong venom from an hourglass
Time stolen, our heads become a prison cell
For the love we don't make
Time weaves these webs
Take those risks cause there's no escape
There's a poison
Coming slowly for our hearts
Our hearts
Coming slowly for our hearts
Our hearts...
This life, like a spider web
Balanced high, in the blowing wind
Time stolen, our hearts become a prison cell
For the risks we don't take
Bitten by a black widow, strong venom from an hourglass
Time stolen, our heads become a prison cell
For the love we don't make
This life, like a spider web
Balanced high, in the blowing wind
Time stolen, our hearts become a prison cell
For the risks we don't-
