Clock

Clock

Close your eyes
Think that you are near
I feel like you are here
But you're not

All I've seen
Is different dimensions
With similar perceptions
Of the same

But the clock kept going tick-tock and I became what I was not
And the ladies kept walking and those big men talking and our kids just hopping around

Open your eyes, my breath is fading, my dreams are burning into ash
All I need is a simple celebration but my imagination wilts, retreats

But the clock kept going tick-tock and I became what I was not
And the ladies kept walking and those big men talking and our kids just hopping around

As the clock was ticking I felt this pain in my chest and I realized that all this time my life's been a mess
Though I wanted you to pieces there was nothing to do, 'cause it's you, you're letting us, you're leading us, boo
Voices spinning 'round and 'round in my head
There's no one who can save me when I'm stuck in my bed
The world is full of scary people walking around
All the ladies and those big men and kids hopping along
But I'm strong
I know it deep inside I can find
And I'll make it in my way, but this might imply
That I'm feeling cries, and society lies
And the only truth I see is written in this child's eyes

But the clock kept going tick-tock and I became what I was not
And the ladies kept walking and those big men talking and our kids just hopping around

Close your eyes
Think that you are near
I feel like you are here
But you're not
