Running out of Time

Lyrics: The clock is breathing down my neck Another day I can't get back I'm searching for a way to disappear But every road leads back to here I've been drowning in the silence With a thousand words I couldn't say Built a prison out of memories And watched the years decay There's a door somewhere before me But it's buried underneath the pain I've been running from the person Staring back at me again Every second cuts like glass Every moment screams too fast I can feel the shadows closing in And I don't know where to begin I'M RUNNING OUT OF TIME! Can anybody hear me cry? I'm searching for an escape While the hours pass me by I'M LOSING EVERY FIGHT! There's no shelter from the rain I'm just a ghost inside this body Trying to outrun the pain Another sunrise, another lie Another piece of me left behind I wear a smile like a loaded gun Pretending I'm not coming undone The hands keep moving, the world moves on But somewhere inside me, the light is gone I've chased salvation through empty streets With shattered dreams beneath my feet TICK! TOCK! THE WALLS CLOSE IN! TICK! TOCK! I'M BURIED WITHIN! NO WAY OUT! NO PLACE TO HIDE! HOW MUCH OF ME IS LEFT INSIDE?! I'M RUNNING OUT OF TIME! Can anybody hear me cry? I'm searching for an escape While the hours pass me by I'M LOSING EVERY FIGHT! There's no shelter from the rain I'm just a ghost inside this body Trying to outrun the pain If I could silence every memory If I could leave this weight behind Maybe I could find the person That I lost somewhere in time But the mirror shows a stranger And the years refuse to wait I'm standing at the crossroads While the seconds seal my fate NO MORE TOMORROWS! THE FUTURE IS BLEEDING! NO MORE ANSWERS! THE CLOCK KEEPS SCREAMING! I NEED A WAY OUT! I NEED TO BREATHE! I'M FIGHTING A WAR THAT NO ONE CAN SEE! TIME DOESN'T WAIT! TIME DOESN'T CARE! I'M FALLING APART AND I'M STILL STANDING HERE! I'M RUNNING OUT OF TIME! But I'm still searching for the light Through the wreckage of my yesterday Through another endless night I'M STILL HERE, STILL ALIVE! Though I'm barely holding on Maybe somewhere past this darkness There's a place where I belong The clock keeps breathing... The sky turns grey... I'm still searching... For a better day... “Please tell me there's still time...” ———————————————————————— © 2026 IONX.
