"...Like Clockwork" lyrics
"...Like Clockwork"
Everyone, it seems
Has somewhere to go
And the faster the world spins
The shorter the lights will glow
And I'm swimming in the night
Chasing down the moon
The deeper in the water
The more I long for you
Most of what you see, my dear
Is purely for show
Because not everything that goes around
Comes back around, you know
Holding on too long is just
A fear of letting go
Because not everything that goes around
Comes back around, you know
One thing that is clear
It's all downhill from here
The love line in your hand
Cleverly disguised
All the promises of stone
Crumble in the light
Most of what you see, my dear
Is worth letting go
Because not everything that goes around
Comes back around, you know
Holding on too long is just
A fear of what to show
Because not everything that goes around
Comes back around, you know
Not everything that goes around
Comes back around, you know
One thing that is clear
It's all downhill from here

Arcade Fire - "We Exist" They're walking around
Head full of sound
Acting like
We don't exist
They walk in the room
And stare right through you
Talking like
We don't exist
But we exist
Daddy it's true
I'm different from...
Clutch - "Gone Cold" Swan boats in daisy chains
Can't seem to recall
My true given name
I see my footprints
How they come, how they go
Was that yesterday?
Or only a moment ago?
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
My heart...
John Frusciante - "Song To The Siren" Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your isle
And you sang
Sail to me
Sail to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am...
Royal Blood - "Out Of The Black" How did it feel when it came alive and took you?
Out of the black
It broke your skin and shook through
Every part of me, every part of you
You made a fool out of me
And took the skin off my back...
