"The Clock" lyrics

The heart
The heart is a lonely and feral creature
And you think it's safe
Locked and leashed in a bone cage

But no heart will ever be safe
Against the devastation of time

We are burning the midnight oil too fast (too fast)
We're out of time
Shipwrecked at Point Nemo as outcasts
Caught in the clock's careless march

And the clock
It makes sure that time flies
It's up to you to be the passenger or pilot

At some junctures, you won't be able to choose
You have to follow the cruel flow of time

We are burning the midnight oil too fast (too fast)
We're out of time
Shipwrecked at Point Nemo as outcasts
Caught in the clock's careless march

We had a moment
But it's called that (called that)
It's called a moment for a reason
Nobody wins with time
With time as the opponent

Tick tock tick
Feel the undercurrent
Tick tock tick
Of remorse
Tick tock tick
Pulling you under
Tick tock tick
To Point Nemo

We had a moment
But it's called that
It's called a moment for a reason
Nobody wins with time
With time as the opponent

We are burning the midnight oil too fast (too fast)
We're out of time
Shipwrecked at Point Nemo as outcasts
Caught in the clock's careless march
We are burning the midnight oil too fast (too fast)
We're out of time
Shipwrecked at Point Nemo as outcasts
Caught in the clock's careless march
