Time...The Great Vivisector Lyrics

PEEL AWAY MY SKIN TO FIND A CORE DISSECTED, BLEEDING, COMPROMISED
HOME OF ANXIETY AND FEAR THEIR PRESENCE GROWS WITH EVERY PASSING YEAR

WON'T WAIT FOR TIME'S
VIVISECTION OF ME

TEAR MY FLESH AND BEAT ME BLIND WITH THE TRUTH, TIMES VULTURES, CIRCLE MY PRIDE
EXPECTATIONS OF EACH NEW DAY, FREEZE ME RIGID WITH UNTOLD MISERY

LEARN TO COUNT MOMENTS NOT MONTHS COS IT'S THE HERE, THE NOW, I MUST CONFRONT
FUTILE ATTEMPTS TO SLOW TIME'S HAND, HIGHLIGHT RESPECT THAT IT COMMANDS

THE WEEKS, MONTHS, YEARS BRING CLARITY
THAT I WILL NEVER FAIL TO BE
SUPRISED BY HOW FAR I CAN FALL
LIFE'S LESSONS WERE NO HELP AT ALL
THE SECONDS DRAIN MY ENERGY
FORCEFEEDING GRIM REALITY
TIMES HANDS SCRAPE AT A BRAZEN SOUL
REMINDER OF IT'S SUPREME CONTROL

THE HERE, THE NOW, I MUST CONFRONT
