[Verse 1]
Held to the light under strict observation it's dry, brittle and thin
Forcing your hand when it speeds up the tempo you try
Flail in the wind
[Chorus]
Time waits patient stepping on the outskirts
Twisting everything I know
I faded, playing off the back foot
Masking anything I show
[Verse 2]
But you sleep and you call out the names of those you know
They don't play on your team
It feels fine in the day when you hear the things they say
They become an antique
[Chorus]
Time waits patient stepping on the outskirts
Twisting everything I know
I faded, playing off the back foot
Masking anything I show
