Lyrics
Time Controlled
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.
The pocket watch spat forth a cog,....
Hands frozen, still time ticks on.....
Shards of glass, remnants of an hour glass that passed, its final grain. ....
Seasons pass uncontrolled. ....
Minute beings....
Blink upon....
Eternity. ....
....
Reality lies not in flesh and bone, it's in these thoughts as clear to see. ....
Black ink upon black paper read so legibly. ....
....
When you can't hear why do you scream? ....
As time still shouts you out of existence. ....
....
Pick it up....
....
Our destiny lies in the dust, just slit my throat in place me in the crust.....
....
The present is nothing but a photograph of the past. I'm just an image that will never last.....
....
Mortality reminds us....
That we're insignificant.....
Unaltered time is....
Ignorant....
....
When you can't hear why the fuck do you scream?.....
When you can't hear why do you scream? And time still shouts you out of existence.....
....
Pick it up....
....
Our destiny lies in the dust, just slit my throat in place me in the crust.....
