[Verse 1] Rearview mirror shows the road you missed Yellow snapshots held in a white knuckle fist Seasons shift without a single sound While you keep staring at the hallowed ground Old dust settled on a velvet sleeve Refusing every single reason to leave [Pre-Chorus] The neighbors moved away The walls are turning gray The sky is blue today [Chorus] Stuck in the amber of a better time Holding a rhythm with a broken rhyme Stuck in the amber of a better time Walking the edges of a silent climb You don't see the light Burning hot and bright [Verse 2] Static voices on a tube TV Blind to everything you used to be Sunlight breaks against the window pane Tracing patterns in the falling rain Flowers bloom beside the garden gate Time won't wait for your clean slate [Pre-Chorus] The records start to skip The memories lose their grip The anchors start to slip [Chorus] Stuck in the amber of a better time Holding a rhythm with a broken rhyme Stuck in the amber of a better time Walking the edges of a silent climb You don't see the light Burning hot and bright [Bridge] Clock hands spinning but you stand still Water flowing underneath the hill Birds are calling out a brand new name While you are looking for a gutter flame Searching Waiting Fading [Chorus] Stuck in the amber of a better time Holding a rhythm with a broken rhyme Stuck in the amber of a better time Walking the edges of a silent climb You don't see the light Burning hot and bright
