Time, Time

Lyrics

Time o intangible time Moving through everything, leave me behind Always changing the tempo, you keep cutting in line While the clock hands spin around like pinwheels The present dangling high on the vine It takes a whole lifetime simply to arrive Now I'm scared just to turn around, afraid that I'll find That the killer is right behind me Time o unfaltering time You're as thin as a shadow, as a persimmon rind But who's clinging to whom? I waited up all night But you know where you can find me I was an infant, then I doubled in size A Russian doll, formеr selves nesting insidе At the center is nothing or a black hole resides No light can be seen escaping Time o unanswerable time Yeah, you've seen the future, you know the way that I die But don't tell me, I'd rather it be a surprise When you come crashing the party Time inexorable time You were moving in circles, I was drawing a line You inhabit my body for as long as you like We both know you're leaving here without me
