[Verse 1] Through the fractures of the clock The velvet shadows start to talk The ceiling melts in rivers of chrome And the quiet walls forget their home Geometric patterns turn and spin Where the outer world meets spark within Whispering colors, no name, no form Burning through the mind like a silent storm [Pre-Chorus] The floorboards hum an ancient chord A cosmic truth without a word We lean in close, we lose the line And step outside the edge of time [Chorus] Time is a snake, time is a snake Eating its tail, making us wake Time is a snake, time is a snake Tearing the veil, letting us break We float like dust in the beam of light We float like dust in the electric night (we float like dust) (we float like dust) [Verse 2] The ego fades, a paper mask Falls to the ground, and ends the task No door to knock, no name to claim Just a bright open field with no one to blame My hands go soft, my bones go light The room goes thin, then out of sight And every fear that I once wore Turns into gold on the floor [Pre-Chorus] The floorboards hum an ancient chord A cosmic truth without a word We lean in close, we lose the line And step outside the edge of time [Chorus] Time is a snake, time is a snake Eating its tail, making us wake Time is a snake, time is a snake Tearing the veil, letting us break We float like dust in the beam of light We float like dust in the electric night (we float like dust) (we float like dust) [Bridge] If I dissolve, let me dissolve Let the locked-up questions all unspool If I am gone, I’m only gone Like a wave returning to the pool [Final Chorus] Time is a snake, time is a snake Eating its tail, making us wake Time is a snake, time is a snake Tearing the veil, letting us break We float like dust in the beam of light We float like dust in the electric night We float like dust in the beam of light We float like dust, and it feels alright
