Clockwork - Inanimate Existence

The clock works against you

Time keeper for the reaper

Eats away a life that I can never renew

Deeds you can never undo

You have learned to accept what you have become

You’ve created a costume, forever trapped inside

A disguise you can never remove

How long will you be able to

Remember who you are?

The father of time peers through your soul eternally

He’s sitting and laughing at your attempted masquerade

Every midnight like clockwork

He will sing his haunting serenade

And will you be afraid?

The clock works against you

Time keeper for the reaper

Eats away a life that I can never renew

Deeds you can never undo

You have learned to accept what you have become

You’ve created a costume, forever trapped inside

A disguise you can never remove

How long will you be able to

Remember who you are?

Try as you may, there is no way to escape the clockwork

Try as you may, there is no way to escape the clockwork

Try as you may, there is no way to escape the clockwork

Try as you may, there is no way to escape the clockwork

My demise, and you won’t survive
