When you close your eyes for a final time
Can we remember what is yours and what is mine?
I may as well count all the stars tonight
Because they won't ever last forever
See how long the night sky can shine bright
Watch the world and all of its lights pass by
Listen to the clock tick as time is lost out of sight
Idly here from January to December
Oh, the sky's gonna fall again
Laid underneath are me and my friends
It's much too hard to pretend...
I hear the clocks tick every single day
See the sky fade from blue to grey
Planet Earth can only spin one way
Thinking at all causes you dismay
Can you hear all that the winds say
Because six feet under is where we all lay
My life was good but nothing can stay
So let's watch the universe fade away
Open your eyes and look at the time
Infinity never existed, so look at my
last words on the grave and see them pass by
Nothing ever truly lasts forever
Ignite the flame but watch it burn out
See the river and watch the death of the water spout
Hear time tick by and see the finite amount
of days haunt you forever
Watch the sky's worth fall again
Laid underneath are us and our ends
There's no point in trying to pretend...
I hear the clocks tick every single day
See the sky fade from blue to grey
Planet Earth can only spin one way
Thinking at all causes you dismay
Can you hear all that the winds say
Because six feet under is where we all lay
My life was good but nothing can stay
Let's watch the universe fade away
Oh, my heart's decomposed and I am all alone
Turn the clock that's on your grave
Hear that wondrous sound of one final bout
Who knew that afterlife could be so grave?
When our lives are over and all that remains
Are our skulls and bones, let's take it to the grave
And hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms
I'll be buried here with you
And I'll hold in these hands
All that remains...
I still hear the clocks tick every single day
It seems the clocks tick everything away...
I hear the clocks tick every single day
See the sky fade from blue to grey
Planet Earth only spins one way
Thinking at all will cause you dismay
Can't you hear all that the winds say
Because six feet under is where we all lay
I leave our lost lives to wander astray
And I'll watch the universe fade away
Oh, we'll all eventually fade away
I don't want it all to fade away
Fading away...
Please don't fade away...
