Speed of Time - Presto Ballet

Like an army, lead by second hands

The arms are spinning faster now, I’m a bitter angry man

All the days are numbered, they go flying by

No way that I can stop this train, no hope to even try

It’s all moving faster, never to be

It’s all ever after, it’s all destiny

Lines upon my face I see grow longer day by day

A slave to unseen masters, what a wicked game to play

Diggin' up the pieces of a broken checkered past

Torn and tattered memories of thing that never last

It’s all moving faster, never to be

It’s all ever after, it’s all destiny

My world won’t stop turning but I’m standing still

Waiting for nothing, no time to left kill

Dreams cost too much and sleep wastes my time

It’s never enough for the peace I can’t find

Tears I’m crying I’ve left to find

If I go nowhere I cross over the dotted line

I cross into the twilight in a calm wide open sea

To drown my sorrows on the rocks and tranquillity

The days of former glory, in the days when we were kings

Only in the memory, can we begin to dream

It’s all moving faster, never to be

It’s all ever after, it’s all destiny
