Verse 1
I saw a robin on the fringe
It couldn't move it's wings
It looked so dead but still alive
I could see it in it's eyes
I placed my hand upon it's head
And said "we'll make it through this, love"
Just keep your heart and I'll keep mine

Pre-Chorus
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time

Verse 2
I must admit I don't regret
Piloting the ship
Even though I'm stuck in Hell
I will escape from this
And when I finally see the light
And I can hold my shape intact
I'll blow a kiss up to the sky

Pre-Chorus
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time

Chorus
Fingers stretch
Form in flux
I touch a wall and then I
Slip
I see a light
A human shape
I reach towards and then I
Slip
The robin's gone
It made it out
I could too but then I
Slip
Has it been days
Has it been years
I catch a glimpse and then I

Verse 3
The strangest dreams inside my head
I'm spliced along the bank
They only see me half the time
Thank god I'm still alive
They said I cannot leave this room
Or I'll face the fringe again
To sit so still is such a crime

Pre-Chorus
But it's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time

Verse 4
I saw a robin in a cage
I think it's heart is sick
I worry now that it will die
If it cannot soon fly
An optimistic scientist
Put the robin in his hand
Said, "do your best and I'll do mine"

Guitar Solo
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time

Chorus
A strange device
A spark of hope
I turn it on and then I
Slip
I start to smile
I'm in control
I try again and then I
Slip
Now I'm whole
I know the way
I hold on tight and then I
Slip
I keep the peace
I save the day
I hold on tight and then I
Slip

Outro
I hold on tight and then I
Slip
I hold on tight and then I
