Mr Time

Stealing a moment from Mr. Time
He rocks in the chair like a shiny dime
But it's all for show
All for show

Wearing your name and a number or two
When the minute's up, so are you
But everybody knows
Everybody knows

Watching the hour from the light in his eyes
He waits for your soul to come in from the sky
But it's lost below
Lost below

Turning the wheel of your destiny 'round
When the motion stops, no more sound
Does anybody care?
Anybody care

Where's the man, where's the child?
Wrapped together side by side
Who can tell you what to do
When Mr. Time has come for you?

See the truth, hear the lies
Can there be no compromise?
Who can tell you what they knew
When Mr. Time has come for you?
When Mr. Time has come for you

Is it a feeling of déjà vu?
When he points his finger, calling you
Is it illusion?
Just an illusion

Picking up seconds that fall to his feet
He blows them away as he rocks in his seat
Cool as his smile
His smile

Where's the man, where's the child?
Wrapped together side by side
Who can tell you what to do
When Mr. Time has come for you?

See the truth, hear the lies
Can there be no compromise?
Who can tell you what they knew
When Mr. Time has come for you?

Where's the man? (Where's the man?)
Where's the child? (Where's the child?)
Wrapped together side by side (side by side)
Who can tell you what to do
When Mr. Time has come for you? (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

See the truth (see the truth)
Hear the lies (hear the lies)
Can there be no compromise?
Who can tell you what they knew
When Mr. Time has come for you? (Come for you)
When Mr. Time has come for you
