Lyrics

[Intro]
I know this place the way a prisoner knows their cell
The brighter the dream, the darker the day
Years dull the senses, never the pain
Shattered, scoured, battered, scorned
I live, I die and am reborn
[Instrumental]
Growing distance and decay
Expansion through a lower state
Forced to disassociate
The mind runs from what it can't face
[Instrumental]
I can't take this, can't make the pieces fit in time
Isolation, where only I can make things right
Hoping for assurance but the solace never comes
Something pulls me forward, in unrest it's done
[PreChorus]
Grim compulsion to create
The message was clear but now it is opaque
[Chorus]
Chronophobe, a living stress
Needle thread through time
Fearful I obsess
Days and months awry
Twisted horologist
Dictates space and mind
In isolation I watch the hours die
[Instrumental]
Vision never wavers as I smash the dying light
Single-minded and with a solitary plight
Hell bent on construction but no battle's ever won
Nothing brings me respite
Can't sleep till I'm done
[PreChorus]
Grim compulsion to create
The message was clear but now it's erased
[Chorus]
Chronophobe, a living stress
Needle thread through time
Fearful I obsess
Days and months awry
Twisted horologist
Dictates space and mind
[Instrumental]
Trapped in this cycle as the months go ticking by
A trail of devastation on the well walked pathways of my mind
[Instrumental]
Standing at the bottom of an endless flight of stairs
Climb until my lungs collapse
But all these steps don't take me anywhere
[Instrumental]
As I fix on my next litany
A ceaseless list of penalties
A thousand tasks I can't complete
A thousand deadlines I could never meet
[Instrumental]
I'm pushed beyond endurance by another sleepless night
Body lies in ruins from another pointless fight
Screaming thoughts the soundtrack to this show that never ends
Nothing brings me closer, I can't wait to start again
[PreChorus]
Grim compulsion to create
The devil works my idle brain
Against my thoughts I start to race
Mentalise exertion at a frenzied pace
[Chorus]
Chronophobe, a living stress
Needle thread through time
Fearful I obsess
Days and months awry
Twisted horologist
Dictates space and mind
In isolation I watch the hours die
