about

This song was originally written and recorded for Erin Burnett in one day. It's been described as Canterbury Progressive. It's a bit moody. It now sounds cleaner, and even has what sounds remarkably like a double bass track.

lyrics

TIME PASSES BY

[INTRO]

VERSE 1:
Each little step you take
Is one closer to the finish line
But it's getting harder
To move forward every time.

It used to be a breeze
To tell everyone you feel okay
But it's not so easy
When you lose a year in a day.

CHORUS 1:
And it's not
As if you're asking
For a whole lot
To get you through
You just speak the words
And hope they're listening
As time passes by.

VERSE 2:
You see your golden chance
To break free from the chains that bind
But you're going to need
All the good will you can find.

You form the words it takes
To tell everyone just what you need
But it takes a strong hand
To till the earth and plant the seed.

CHORUS 2:
And it's not
As if you're begging
For the whole world
To ease the pain
You state your case
And pray the words come out right
As time passes by.

No it's not
As if you're dying
It's hard enough
To live like this
You ask for help
And fear no one can hear you
As time passes by.
