Time Lyrics

That which we capture with hands and our face
for some only numbers to measure the pace
It draws lines on our skin
and feeds on our strength
For some who remember, it causes their pain

It makes us worried and takes our dreams
Sometimes it's the enemy, or so it seems
Forces us to hurry this threat through night and day
It's owned by the patient, no price to pay

Through life some wander while others seem to race
Success beating outwards, no end to the maze
It takes all of us in and feeds on our strength
For those who remember it causes their pain

It makes us worry and takes our dreams
Sometimes it's the enemy or so it seems
Forces us to hurry this threat through night and day
It's owned by the patient, no price to pay

Why do you chase it?
What can it bring you?
It can't be had

The secret hides in living
The secret hides in living

Through life some wonder why lovers seem to race
For those who remember it causes pain
For those who remember it causes pain
For those who remember it causes pain

Buried Deep Stays Buried Still

That which we capture with hands and our face  
for some only numbers to measure the pace  
It draws lines on our skin  
and feeds on our strength  
For some who remember, it causes their pain  
 
It makes us worried and takes our dreams  
Sometimes it's the enemy, or so it seems  
Forces us to hurry this threat through night and day  
It's owned by the patient, no price to pay  
 
Through life some wander while others seem to race  
Success beating outwards, no end to the maze  
It takes all of us in and feeds on our strength  
For those who remember it causes their pain  
 
It makes us worry and takes our dreams  
Sometimes it's the enemy or so it seems  
Forces us to hurry this threat through night and day  
It's owned by the patient, no price to pay  
 
Why do you chase it?
What can it bring you?
It can't be had  
 
The secret hides in living  
The secret hides in living  
 
Through life some wonder why lovers seem to race  
For those who remember it causes pain  
For those who remember it causes pain  
For those who remember it causes pain

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
