NOVA – Time Ticks Slowly Lyrics

Another day – is passing by,
Strange as it feels – like our last goodbye,
The empty space – around my head,
The peace within me – the future dead.

Time ticks slowly for those who wait.

The long sharp steel – the cold rush spun,
I slip and slide – a new path begun,
Face the facts – what's done is done,
I cannot hide – I cannot run,

Time ticks slowly for those who wait

The hammer went down -- the verdict said,
The light in my eyes, salt burns red,
I bury my head, in palms of dust,
Never return, never will rust,

Time ticks slowly for those who wait
