Clockwork Enemy

Endless is the measure of the pain you've learned to keep

Countless is the measure of the loss that burdens me

It leaves you restless, your soul contested

You can't wait, can't shake all the feelings deep down inside

You know death takes it's toll on the peace in your mind

Nothing can drown out the noise, no matter what you destroy

No matter who you become, no matter what you avoid

And even when you pray for me, hate for me

I feel it in my heart, but you couldn't have known

Time doesn't wait for me, it's breaking me

Weighing me down like an anchor in tow

You pulled the chains, tell me and I'll let them go

So really would you pray for me, hate for me

Even though time's gonna break me down?

Feel the clockwork enemy now

Feel the clockwork enemy

Crush foundations of everything you know and love

But never make a sound

You're colder now than you said that you'd ever be

Brace yourself, try to live in the reverie

Eyes closed, blood cold, please don't let go

And even if time stood still, I would never feel human again

Watching the hours bleed into days

Too many years spent chipping away at me

And even when you pray for me, hate for me

I feel it in my heart, but you couldn't have known

Time doesn't wait for me, it's breaking me

Weighing me down like an anchor in tow

You pulled the chains, tell me and I'll let them go

So really would you pray for me, hate for me

Even though time's gonna break me down?
