Lyrics

So safe within this cozy little cell
No risk at all, throwing coins into a well
I lust for gold but shudder at the price
The reward I want but not the sacrifice
And the target's well within my sights
But my hands, they won't release the bow
I've been pulling back on it so long
I've forgotten how to let it go
And I know I have the means
But my will is gone
And I fear I won't succeed
So I'm holding on
A life passes by, I watch passively
I'm haunted by time, my enemy
I fear that I'm bound, I fear that I'm free
I'm haunted by time, my enemy
I'm frozen by the fast approaching night
A deer that stares into oncoming light
It's time for me to come down from the fence
But either side invites a consequence
Waiting for the door to open wide
Waiting for the stones to find their place
The prize, it never seems to leave my hands
Intentions never help me in the race
And I know I have the means
But my will is gone
And I fear I won't succeed
So I'm holding on
A life passes by, I watch passively
I'm haunted by time, my enemy
I fear that I'm bound, I fear that I'm free
I'm haunted by time, my enemy
So I'm safe within my cozy little shell
No risk at all, just wishing to myself
The price of gold, more than I care to spend
But the cost of life is to chance the consequence
And the target's well within my sights
But my hands, they won't release the bow
I've been pulling back on it so long
I've forgotten how to let it go
And I know I have the means
But my will is gone
And I fear I won't succeed
So I'm holding on
A life passes by, I watch passively
I'm haunted by time, my enemy
I fear that I'm bound, I fear that I'm free
I'm haunted by time, my enemy
