Jimmy Lamoreau - Between The Ticks Lyrics

There's a space between the ticks of the clock
Where time can't reach, where the world can't talk
I try to live there, just for a while
But it slips through my hands like a fleeting smile.
I see the years in the cracks on the wall
The weight of moments I can't recall
The ones that mattered, the ones that burned
All still waiting for their turn.
Caught between the ticks, where life slows down
A quiet little place where I'm not bound
No past to chase, no future to fear
Just a breath in the now, just me right here.
I found a letter I forgot to send
From the time when I swore I'd never bend
The words were bold, but the ink had bled
Fading truths I left unsaid.
I keep chasing things I'll never own
A runaway train on rusted bones
But in the quiet, when the world stands still
I wonder if I ever will.
Caught between the ticks, where life slows down
A quiet little place where I'm not bound
No past to chase, no future to fear
Just a breath in the now, just me right here.
What if the moments we let pass by
Are the ones that write the reason why?
What if the silence we try to ignore
Holds the answers we've been looking for?
Caught between the ticks, where time unwinds
A fleeting escape from the noise in my mind
No past to chase, no future to steer
Just a fleeting breath, just me right here.
