The Clock

Tick, tock another day slips by Drip, drop the fates have bled me dry My soul fades away down a slippery slope I'm losing my grip at the end of my rope Just take the lead and control I've been losing my mind for too long It's time I let it all go It's time to tear down the walls that I've drawn Tick, tock I've reached my terminus Knock, knock at the gates of Cerberus The judges ahead in delirium Not worthy enough for Elysium Just take the lead and control I've been losing my mind for too long It's time I let it all go It's time to tear down the walls that I've drawn One, two, three I've paid my fee on Four, five, six the River Styx to Seven, eight, nine I need more time with Ten, eleven, twelve I've lost myself oh One, two, three I can't just sleep 'til Four, five, six my thread she snips and Seven, eight, nine I've lost my time to Ten, eleven, twelve I need some help Just take the lead and control I've been losing my mind for too long It's time I let it all go It's time to tear down the walls that I've drawn And if I let it all go Will you be there my side all along I feel I'm losing my soul Is there no place for me left I belong Just take the lead make me whole I've been losing my mind for too long I'm gonna let it all go Gonna tear down the walls that I've drawn Ooh Stars hide, stars hide your fires Let not light see my black deep desires Which the eye fears when it's time to see Stars hide, stars hide your fires mmm
