Light

Was it the last thing we saw?

This hesitation stuck in my jaw

Life

Was it all just a dream?

Keep moving forward, marching full steam

Oh, no, there's no coming back from this

I cease to exist because I'm dreaming black clockwork again

There's so much pain now

But I can't resist

I touch my wrist and I've been dreaming black clockwork again

Oh, can't you see me, baby?

Oh, can't you see that I'm dreaming?

Cracks in the foundation as we writhe within frustration once again

A lonely day is spent, I've been

Waiting up nights for you

Hoping you see this through

All we do is waste time

Thinking about you

I hope your dream comes true

I know you feel it too

Chasing

The feeling

You know

That you're dreaming

The meaning

Is missing

Phantoms

Stuck in your way

God, oh there's nothing more to give

Tear down the clockwork

Become unhinged

Oh, is there something I had missed?

The pulse resets now

The final click

Oh, no there's no coming back from this

I cease to exist because I'm dreaming black clockwork again

There's no confusion, I made this wish

This life is bliss since I've been dreaming black clockwork again

Oh, can't you see me, baby?

Oh, can't you see me?

'Cause I've been dreaming

Cracks in the foundation as we writhe within frustration once again
