In the Grip of Time Lyrics by Elxi

0

Nothing cuts deeper than days we waste
Moments lost in reckless haste
Time is dust upon the breeze
A shadow slipping through the trees
We spend it blindly, deaf to cost
Only feeling what we’ve lost
Extravagance—its silent bite
Leaves us hollow, steals our light
So brace your heart, build armor strong
For life will test where you belong
In conquering doubt, the world unfolds
A strength within that no one holds
Desire calls like a fleeting spark
But discipline lights the dark
I feel it burn in every vein
The weight of hours I can’t reclaim
Each moment fades, a lasting scar
In quiet echoes, near and far
To waste is ruin, slow and raw
A path unseen, a hidden flaw
So brace your heart, build armor strong
For life will test where you belong
In conquering doubt, the world unfolds
A strength within that no one holds
Extravagance—a thief so sly
Robs you blind as life slips by
Time’s a candle in dimmest room
Guard it close or face its doom
No loss as sharp, no cost as keen
As hours gone, the might-have-been
Hold time close, let purpose guide
A precious gift, not cast aside
Desire calls like a fleeting spark
But discipline lights the dark
I feel it burn in every vein
The weight of hours I can’t reclaim
Each moment fades, a lasting scar
In quiet echoes, near and far
To waste is ruin, slow and raw
A path unseen, a hidden flaw
Extravagance—a thief so sly
Robs you blind as life slips by
Time’s a candle in dimmest room
Guard it close or face its doom
