Lyrics
Tempestas
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Do we know what time is?
Is it the time on the clock that's ticking
The ticking that accompanies us all day
All night and in between?
Is it our lifetime
Periods that run
Always aiming a certain point
A point that stays unknown until our arrival
Thoughts they fly
Time goes by
Impossible to keep hold of it
Thoughts disappear
But time won't
Immeasurable, stable
Tempus edax rerum
Are we the ruler
Or are we subjects?
Is time our influence?
Are we to neglect?
Time is precious
Time is rare
Though we're sometimes
Unaware
We are no masters
But we're not enslaved
Sometimes it's fate
And sometimes dictate
Tempus edax rerum
