History Read

[Verse 1]
The time stamp on my forehead doesn't have enough ink
It fades a little more with every thought that I think
Soak up the minutes that drip from the clock
Hush all the ticks before they start to tock

[Chorus]
Woke up this mornin' with eyelids of lead
You pulled up the blankets to cover my head
Oh, I might be dreamin'
Or I might be dead
My heaven is fleetin'
My history read

[Verse 2]
Setting the deadline, life clove you and me
But magic might happen if I cross the "C"
Nothing can last, but nothing is wrong
Don't fear the past before it comes along

[Chorus]
Woke up this morning with eyelids of lead
You pulled up the blankets to cover my head
Oh, I might be dreaming
Or I might be dead
My heaven is fleeting
My history read

[Bridge]
Time isn't hiding, it's just hard to find
Ours are the hours that aren't defined

[Chorus]
Woke up this morning with eyelids of lead
You pulled up the blankets to cover my head
Oh, I might be dreaming
Or I might be dead
My heaven is fleeting
My history read
