Time Is a Carnivore

Time, you never stop to feed
Every breath you take from me
Is another I can't keep

I feel you biting through my skin
Every loss keeps crawling in
The clock just grins, it doesn't care
It takes and takes, and I'm still there

I swore I'd find a way to breathe
But time smiled

Time is a carnivore
Tearing through everything I adore
Time is a carnivore
It bites, it laughs, it wants me more
Time is a carnivore

Every scar becomes a year
Every dream burns clear
We chase the hours we can't afford
And call it life like we won the war

We run for tomorrow
Tomorrow runs first

Time is a carnivore
It's chewing through everything I adore
Time is a carnivore
It bites, it laughs, it wants me more
Time is a carnivore

Tick by tick, it feeds again
On everything I could have been
Let me live before I end

Time is a carnivore

Time is a carnivore
Tearing through the love I'm fighting for
Time is a carnivore
It bites, it laughs, it wants me more
Time is a carnivore

Clinging on, before it's dead
Hold on, before it's gone
Time is a carnivore
