About “Time In Your Hands”
“Time In Your Hands” is a heartfelt and introspective song by Marie Hopkinson that gently explores the value of time, reflection on life’s journey after a change or loss, amidst life with social media. Where do we go when loss hits us hard and are we caught in a comparison trap that only worsens the pain. With her warm, soulful vocals and delicate acoustic arrangement, this track creates an emotional space that resonates deeply.
Perfect for music supervisors looking for a reflective female singer-songwriter track for emotional montages, life reflection scenes, loss journey, modern breakup or thoughtful dramatic moments in film, TV, and advertising.

Time in Your Hands
Lyrics
VERSE 1:
Where do we belong
Now that everything has gone?
Where do we go now
New spaces we find somehow
VERSE 2:
Who do you turn to?
You lost the ones who knew
Who’s shoulder do you cry on
Now that what you had is gone?
PRE CHORUS:
You wanted this space
You made it happen
Now Your all alone,
with all your thoughts and no one else
You wanted this room
Made it happen
Your by yourself
In the void created
CHORUS:
Now I’m sitting here watching the highlight reel
Of other people’s lives
Living out their time
It hurts me inside
Now I’m sitting here watching the highlight reel
Of everybody else
All these things that you think that you need
In good time
VERSE 3:
Where do we go now
looking at places to travel to
how do I tell you how I feel
It’s so hard so I will…
CHORUS:
Now I’m sitting here watching the highlight reel
Of other people’s lives
Living out their time
It hurts me inside
Now I’m sitting here watching the highlight reel
Of everybody else
All these things you think you need
In good time
BRIDGE:
Time on your hands
Its like a poison
Polluting my mind
Time in your hands
All these comparisons,
I feel left behind
Now I’m sitting here watching the highlight reel
Of other people’s lives
Living out their time
It hurts me inside
CHORUS:
Now I’m sitting here watching the highlight reel
Of everybody else
All these things you think you need
In good time
Time on your hands
Its like a poison
Polluting my mind
