Lyrics

By Bryant Switzky

Now is the time, it won’t last long
You only see it once and then it’s gone
Nothing to do but take it all in
And try to remember where you’ve been

The shadows of life all echo in my ears
I’ll be where I am you’ll find me here
I’ll be where I am you’ll find me here

The future unknown, the past is defined
The space between them thinner than a line
Be here with me in real life
Walking on the edge of a knife

The shadows of life all echo in my ears
I will be where I am you’ll find me here
I’ll be where I am you’ll find me here

Each tick of the clock
Each step that I walk
They're Gordian knots of a sort
When I close my eyes tight
I see flickers of light
And every word that I write falls short

The shadows of life all echo in my ears
I’ll be where I am you’ll find me here
I’ll be where I am you’ll find me here
(Now is the time)
I’ll be where I am you’ll find me here
(It won't last long)
I’ll be where I am you’ll find me here
(You'll only see it once while it's here)
