Chiasm - Delay lyrics

I thought there was a place Where stars shone bright with grace And rain fell slow to time While wind dispersed its seed And now I learn I can't revive the past I've lost And I shall pay the cost Disuaded by the state That traps my mind in place Delay There is always time But how much will I be calling mine today? I will search to find A chance that else may only bring delay I'll repeat the line Replace the marks insisting that I stay Towards the sun that blinds my way I can see now you're lost inside The trap that holds you down The safety of your net Creates a yearning to regress On back receding towards A tiny place that holds you close To feel the dark it makes

Within your yearning to embrace The fear that grows inside Keeps churning every day As the world surrounds And moves to block your way And now you're holding back The things that you regret But reaching towards the sky Brings more than you could bet Delay There is always time But how much will I be calling mine today? I will search to find A chance that else may only bring delay I will take what's mine Replace the marks insisting that I stay Towards the sun that blinds my way Delay There is always time But how much will I be calling mine today? I will search to find A chance that else may only bring delay Delay Delay Delay
