Track Insight / Lyrics
Wooden skin, stained with time
Dusty dreams, etched in line
Neon puddles, streets alive
County fair, swingin' high
Little hands, small and neat
Scratchin' marks, a memory sweet
[Pre-
Each notch a year, a fleeting trace
Growin' taller, time's embrace
Pencil marks on my wooden heart
Every inch, a brand new start
Measure love, measure loss
Time keeps tickin', at any cost
First smile wide, a rosy cheek
Childhood laughter, bold and bleak
Candy floss, and cotton shoes
Tickin' clocks, tellin' who's who
[Pre-
Each notch a year, a fleeting trace
Growin' taller, time's embrace
Pencil marks on my wooden heart
Every inch, a brand new start
Measure love, measure loss
Time keeps tickin', at any cost
Teenage dreams, whispered low
Secret love, that's hard to know
Long walks home, hand in hand
Memories carved, on shifting sand
[Pre-
Each notch a year, a fleeting trace
Growin' taller, time's embrace
Pencil marks on my wooden heart
Every inch, a brand new start
Measure love, measure loss
Time keeps tickin', at any cost
Now I stand, beneath the moon
Seein' ghosts, of childhood soon
The pencil's gone, the marks remain
Tellin' stories, through sun and rain
[Pre-
Each notch a year, a fleeting trace
Growin' taller, time's embrace
Pencil marks on my wooden heart
Every inch, a brand new start
Measure love, measure loss
Time keeps tickin', at any cost
Tickin' on, through the dark and light
Pencil marks, holdin' on tight
