This is about accepting the process of aging and everything that comes with it, about each carrying own cross and learning to be at peace with choices they made, about remembering or not remembering goodness and kindness.

Lyrics

V1
I always lived my life, as if
I walked on ice, thin as a leaf
But time is people’s greatest thief
Of precious seconds
It stole my empty yesterday
And while I thought I’m on my way
It slowly chipped my days away
And left no records...

CHORUS:
A Man and Time
Caught between his soul and mind
A Man and Time
Find the way how these two rhyme

V2
I glanced back on rotten rust
On something written in the dust
Was it faces from my past?
Or an illusion?
I looked again and thought I heard
A long forgotten kind word
It was just a mockingbird
That caused confusion...

CHORUS:
A Man and Time
Caught between his soul and mind
A Man and Time
A search for reasons left behind

BRIDGE:
To forget I looked ahead
And I felt the snow land
On my hair
On my hair
I shut my eyelids. They were dry
I’d forgotten how to cry
Or didn’t care
Didn’t care
V3
For many days I walked the land
Time following behind and
Ill regrets without end
Kept me company.
But this is what was very strange
If someone offered me a change
My lips bleeding from the clench
I wouldn’t want any.
CHORUS:
A Man and Time
Caught between his soul and mind
A Man and Time
You are deaf and you are blind
A Man and Time
