Steady Glow

The clock on the wall, it never stops ticking

It feels almost new but I've been here before

I wait for your call, but it's never coming

And I'm always running away

Sick of God has a plan, things happen for a reason

It feels so unfair that it happened this way

The clock on the wall, it never stops ticking

But your time was cut short

I've been seeing your face in the steady glow

Of the torch I hold

As your flame just burned out so

So suddenly

We said no goodbyes, the last thing you told me

Was see you next month when the leaves start to fall

I know that you're gone, I can't help but wonder

If you can still hear me now

The funeral home, the man at the podium

He said Jesus saves but what did he save you from?

No goodbyes, the last words you told me

Are ringing in my head

I've been seeing your face in the steady glow

Of the torch I hold

But your flame just burned out so

All your flame just burned out so

So suddenly

I'd go back to your house on main

But I don't wanna relive all the pain

It's been two years since you left on that September day

I'll take care of your guitars and your radio collection

Promise it's in loving hands

Two years, I still think about you every day

The clock on the wall, it never stops ticking

It feels almost new but I've been here before

I wait for your call, but it's never coming

And I'm always running away

Oh I'm always running away

I've been seeing your face in the steady glow

Of the torch I hold

But your flame just burned out so

Are you at the top of the world

Or the back of my mind?

But your flame just burned out so

And your flame just burned out so

Suddenly

So suddenly
