[Verse] The hands don’t lie, they trace the hours slow On silver arms that never let me go The glass is half-full, the music starts to bend Like shadows stretchin’ in the dimming end [Pre-Chorus] Every note a ghost, every chord a name That slips away like smoke in summer’s flame [Chorus] Clock and cymbal, keep the rhythm true Ticking time like a heart that won’t say "no" I watch it spin with a quiet kind of grace While the world moves on, I stay in this space Clock and cymbal, keep it all aligned A heartbeat in the hush, a love that’s unrefined [Verse] The bartender wipes the glass with steady hands Like I’m just another dream he’s lost and planned The mirror shows a face I almost know Another ghost beneath the neon glow [Pre-Chorus] Every note a ghost, every chord a name That slips away like smoke in summer’s flame [Chorus] Clock and cymbal, keep the rhythm true Ticking time like a heart that won’t say "no" I watch it spin with a quiet kind of grace While the world moves on, I stay in this space Clock and cymbal, keep it all aligned A heartbeat in the hush, a love that’s unrefined [Bridge] Time won’t wait, but I won’t run Let the silence hum, let the minutes come If this moment’s all I’ll ever be I’ll be the pause between you and me [Chorus] Clock and cymbal, keep the rhythm true Ticking time like a heart that won’t say "no" I watch it spin with a quiet kind of grace While the world moves on, I stay in this space Clock and cymbal, keep it all aligned A heartbeat in the hush, a love that’s unrefined [Outro] Clock and cymbal… Keep it all aligned… A heartbeat in the hush… Still… Still… Still…
