Lyrics
The clock
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.
Time is running out for us
But you just move the hands upon the clock
You throw coins in the wishing well
For us
You just move your hands upon the wall
It comes to you begging you to stop
Wake up
But you just move your hands upon the clock
Throw coins in the wishing well
For us
You make believe that you are still in charge
