Like clockwork

Everyone is seems, has somewhere to go
And the faster the world spins, the shorter the lights will glow
And I'm swimming at night, chasing down the moon
The deeper in the water, the more I long for you

Most of what you see, my dear, is purely for show
Because not everything that goes around
Comes back around, you know?
Holding on too long is just a fear of letting go
Because not everything that goes around
Comes back around, you know?
One thing that is clear: It's all downhill from here

The loveline in your hand, cleverly disguised
All the promises of stone, crumble in the light

Most of what you see, my dear
Is worth letting go
Because not everything that goes around
Comes back around, you know?
Holding on too long is just a fear of what to show
Because not everything that goes around
Comes back around, you know?

One thing is clear
It's all downhill from here
