The sky was suspended
On a silver wire
You lost a a fistfight by the roadside
Took a shortcut home through the graveyard

Between the cedars
In the shades of blue and green
They wind and they tie and they wrap and they pull

Time will tie your hands
And this poison is bitter
Pulled along and pulled under
Time will tie your hands
Float along with the current and they'll find you face down in the river

Her voice slid across the table
it still rings in your ears
You keep on saying you're no charity case
Its just been a bad few years

Don't say that nobody warned you
Or that it wasn't intentional
Looking back looking back looking back
You beg for morning redemption

Go swim with the dreamers
In the shades of blue and green
you reach and you grasp and you slip and you fall

Time will tie your hands
Time will tie your hands
And they'll find you face down in the river

Time will tie your hands
And this poison is bitter
Pulled along and pulled under
Time will tie your hands
Float along with the current and they'll find you face down in the river
