Time Stands Still - Govt Mule Lyrics

2 s Time Stands Still Lyrics[Verse 1]
There's a solitude across the land
Whatever I was is what I am
They say "don't get stuck in yesterday"
But it looks like the past is here to stay
The future ain't bright, take off those shades (Time stands still)
It's a snowball fight with "live" grenades (Time stands still)
There's a tired old man that won't get out of the way
He watches Rome burn while the violins play
He sits alone in his room and he tweets
While the proud and the innocent gather in the streets

[Verse 2]
There's a teenage girl with a diploma in her hand (Time stands still)
Was gonna travel the world but now she's got no plans
And there's a boy with a gun, he's wounded and mad (Time stands still)
Said all he ever wanted was to be like his dad (Time stands still)
There's a grinning Cheshire by the water spout (Time stands still)
There's a blackbird knowing that his time's run out (Time stands still)
There's a broken clock chiming noon all day
While its rusted hands point the other way
There's red blood dripping from its angry face
There's a blue world longing for another time and place
Time and place

[Verse 3]
Do you remember when the earth was round?
We spent the last ten years just flattening it out
Maybe we can make it round again someday (Time stands still)
Before we all get washed away (Time stands still)
There's a tired old man that won't get out of the way
He watches Rome burn while the violins play
He sits alone in his room and he tweets
While the proud and the innocent gather in the streets

[Outro]
There's a solitude across the land
Whatever I was is what I am
