Time is mine lyrics

Lift me up

Lift me up

Put me above jail

But put me below skies, below crimson skies

Undress me from these rags

Shake me and watch me glow

Foundations cracking under the wisdom of our steps

Lift me up and shake me low

Shake and glow and life will be saved

Time is mine, ignore the blind

It won't be long till the writing is gone

And time will fly

A burden on life lifted high and precisely through wisdom and war

Wisdom and war

Braided veins

Can turn to gold

Smoke and stone

Will claim the skies and open all whose eyes are blind

The tempter is behind thee, and cowers through the throes

The sands that drank from blood, to rivers that flow beyond

Time is mine, ignore the blind

It won't be long till the writing is gone

And time will fly

The tied hands of man and you will understand through the pains of rebirth

Time is mine, the choking of seas

I won't be wrong when the scriptures are gone

And time will fly

A burden on life lifted high and precisely through wisdom and war

Deplete the eyes

Walk through the skies

In the memories of old

We'll blow it all away

Time is mine, ignore the blind

It won't be long till the writing is gone

And time will fly

The tied hands of man and you will understand through the pains of rebirth

Time is mine, the choking of seas

I won't be wrong when the scriptures are gone

And time will fly

A burden on life lifted high and precisely through wisdom and war
