The clocktower
Praying mantisYour hands that dance so well
Like myself your motion may not last
The final strikin of the bell
Hide me from my memories
Part me from my soul
But the pendulum of life will carry on
Although my days are numbered
I won't count them one by one
The sympathy I leave to you
Are you the friend I never had and never will
A taste of life just will not do
All these years I learnt the rules of life
But again I'm a child
I'm about to make the next step in time
Chorus:
Time hides the answers
Time holds the truth
Time is the enemy hidden from our youth
Hide me from my memories
Part me from my soul
But the pendulum of life will carry on
Open the doors, open my history
So many thoughts, so few of which I care
I see what I've missed and it's common to us all
It's time that we will always share
All these years I learnt the rules of life
But again I'm a child
I'm about to make the next step in time
Time hides the answers
Time holds the truth
Time is the enemy
I'm about to make the next step in time
