...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
The fear of letting go
Because
Not everything that goes around
Comes back around, you know?
One thing that is clear:
It’s all down hill
From here
The love line in your hand
Cleverly disguised
All the promises of stone
Crumble in the night
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 down hill
From here
