Bending Time by Tawny Peaks Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2014

I never noticed, no, I guess I didn't care
Until the spring had sprung
And I was made aware

That the year was speeding by
Present day giving way to the past in front of my eyes

Oh, I still can't comprehend that bend in time

Tripped up, trapped again
The jaws can snap down now and then with no cause
We never expected to get so invested
It's our fault, but we'll never confess it

Crumbling days have helped remind me minds decay with no cause
A few semesters have put things in scale
They filled our heads with tall tales

Each little lesson a little more depressing
Post dramatic stress, you sure have kept us guessing
What's the matter that's the most pressing?
Post dramatic stress, you sure have kept us guessing
Well I guess that tests and trials will have their way
I thought that there could only be so many morals to obey

Can you believe what was hidden up the sleeve
Of the year that's speeding by?
Present day giving way to the past in front of our eyes

And I still can't comprehend that bend in time

True, I'm tracing steps, they might lead back to where I leapt from safety
Saved by a breeze, but I'm bruised just the same
Wouldn't return if I could, it's too tame

But each little lesson's a little more depressing
Post dramatic stress you sure have kept us guessing

So I'll guess my best, if it's really so pressing, I can guess what's next
Precedent set as we cast our bets, I can guess what's next

Tests and trials will have their way
I thought that there could only be so many morals to obey

Can you believe what was hidden up the sleeve
Of the year that's speeding by?
Present day giving way to the past in front of our eyes
Oh, I still can't comprehend...

It's speeding by, and it won't slow although I've tried
And I would pat myself on the back if my hands weren't tied
