Hour After Hour

You live inside a clock

I feel your hands upon my face

Choking on the aftertaste of time

And should the ticking stop

Just watch my heart disintegrate

Into these fragments you've embedded in your mind

You're light years away

But you're still mine most every day

Just a wicked master of horology

If i reach out my hand

I just get buried in the sand

I'm suffocating

Could you spare the time to rescue me

Hour after hour

I get caught inside the days

It's like some broken fascination

I can't make it go away

Hour after hour

Until the count is finally through

More and more i guess what pavlov says is true

My life gets lost inside of you

The numbers on the wall

Prove that the sky's is about to fall

But maybe persistence will melt it all away

We're all in the pursuit

Of chronologic absolute

But please tell me

Could you simply count me out today?

I could believe in athanasia

But what if there is no hope at all?

Hour after hour

I get caught inside the days

It's like some broken fascination

I can't make it go away

Hour after hour

Until the count is finally through

More and more i guess what pavlov says is true

And i'm still counting

Hour after hour

I get caught inside the days

It's like some broken fascination

I can't make it go away

Hour after hour

Until the count is finally through

More and more i guess what pavlov says is true

My life gets lost inside of you
