Donovan Melero – Timepiece Lyrics

 

Timepiece Lyrics by Donovan Melero

 

December 22 I got a gift that took the breath from me.
Rapidly.
I couldn’t understand.
Or get around the thought that you would actually try to be

Ruthless.
But of course this was the purpose at that time.
Hidden in your apartment is a photo you still will find.

Like a timepiece.
Remember what we left and what we came for.
Stars aligning
Nothing would change our mind.
But, love, remember what to take and what to pay for.

I landed on my feet but I had to walk at first.
Through the dirt.
In my heart I knew the attitude was coming from a place of hurt.
It’s how you were.

Ruthless. Vicious princess your compulsive when you act.
Hidden in my closet is a garment I’m sending back.

Like a timepiece.
Remember what we left and what we came for.
Stars aligning
Nothing would change our mind.
But, love, remember what to take and what to pay for.

You’d visit me every night
I cursed every dream you were in
And no matter how hard I tried I couldn’t get that cycle to end

My mind wants what it wants
No use in lying about it
But I slowly detached from the past
Stopped living in times I had lived

The moments we made we made in your flat
Are there if you look hard enough
All pictures and things you sent back don’t dissolve that

Like a timepiece.
Remember what we left and what we came for.
Stars aligning
Nothing would change our mind.
Like a timepiece.
We’d never fall in line.
But, love, remember what to take and what to pay for.
