Clockwork

You're probably sick of being tired

You can't find the strength to close your eyes

You can't let go, but you can't change everything

Stuck lying in this burning bed

Write it on the walls and read it

Bright red so you can see it

Don't fail me now

Write it on the walls and read it

Until there are no secrets

So safe and sound

At least for now

Time's gonna warn you with a whisper

What it wants to let you know

You can't live in fear of the things that aren't for sure

So stay alive by playing dead

Write it on the walls and read it

Bright red so you can see it

Don't fail me now

Write it on the walls and read it

Until there are no secrets

So safe and sound

Still there are lines for us to write before we close our eyes

And only time will tell the ending when the ink runs dry

Time will tell everything

It's ever so quiet counting down

Write it on the walls and read it

Blood red so you can see it

Life leaking out

Write it on the walls and read it

Until there are no secrets

So safe and sound

At least for now

At least for now
