Clockwork Wilderness Lyrics

Fleeting comfort betrayed by years
A lifeline snapped by the spinning gears
If I foresaw such backass ways
I’d pass the chance to wake up today

TRAVELLING BLIND WITH AN INNOCENT MIND
THE WAR AGAINST TIME NEVER FELT SO RIGHT
CARRY THE UNWOUND VOICES CALLING
OVER YOUR ASHEN CORPSE BY CANDLELIGHT
ALL THE DAYS PLAY TO THE SCORE I REWRITE
AS THE HELPLESS FOLLOW ME THROUGH THE NIGHT

Paranoia rapes my ringing head
My bleeding heart been used as a sled
The wilderness cries, the pendulum flies
Swung out of time with the clockwork rhyme

TRAVELLING BLIND WITH AN INNOCENT MIND
THE WAR AGAINST TIME NEVER FELT SO RIGHT
CARRY THE UNWOUND VOICES CALLING
OVER YOUR ASHEN CORPSE BY CANDLELIGHT
ALL THE DAYS PLAY TO THE SCORE I REWRITE
AS THE HELPLESS FOLLOW ME THROUGH THE NIGHT

As the clock counts down
And the church begins to chime
Those hands slow down
And it’s hard to tell the time
Now I swing to and fro
In this winter wonderland
But the eyes you see
Stare frozen back at thee
So free
