Clockwork Lyrics

You're probably sick of being tired.
You can't find the strength to close your eyes,
You can't let go, but you can't change everything.
No matter what, it seems some pages go unturned,
But that's not for us to understand.
My only hope is that you get what you deserve.
Some things are just out of our hands.
Time is going to warn you with a whisper,
When it wants to let you know.
You can't live in fear of the things that aren't for sure.

Like this song a lot too.. It was in the SSX3 videogame and I always listen to it when I go snowboarding..

ABout the meaning I agree with most of you up there.. Life goes on.. instead of just letting things happen you have to make decisions, even hard ones..

You can compare it with snowboarding in fact.. haha.. everything jsut goes so fast but you still have to make those decisions, where to go..

anywho, great song, I realla wanna see them live =)

CORRECT FINAL LYRICS:

You're probably sick of being tired You can't find the strength to close your eyes You can't let go but you can't change everything Stop laying in this burning bed

Write it on the walls and read it Bright red so you can see it Don't fail me now Write it on the walls and read it Until there are no secrets So safe and sound At least for now

Time's gonna warn you with a whisper What it wants to let you know You can't live in fear of the things that aren't for sure So stay alive by playing dead

Write it on the walls and read it Bright red so you can see it Don't fail me now Write it on the walls and read it Until there are no secrets So safe and sound

Still there are lines for us to write before we close our eyes And only time will tell the ending when the ink runs dry Time will tell everything It's ever so quiet counting down

[That's why I write it down, left it there with the blood out of my hands to stare at and it drops right down It dried and I turned around and the blood was a small price to pay it made it real it made it real because I write it down, left it there with the blood on my hands to stare at and it drops right down It dried and I turned around the and the blood was a small price to pay it made it real it made it real…]

Write it on the walls and read it Blood red so you can see it Life leaking out Write it on the walls and read it Until there are no secrets So safe and sound At least for now At least for now

I saw these guys at a show at the glass house last night, and they were the second best band there next to finch. When they played this song it kicked ass, the crowd went wild, these guys rock.

I think that basically, this song is saying that we all have to make decisions in life, even tough ones, where we aren't sure if we are making the right one or not. The song says that we will never be able to see what would have happened had we chosen a different path, and we need to accept that as a fact of life. I think the title, "Clockwork" is saying that life is like clockwork, where the gears turn with a set motion,and we cannot change that, referring to the fact that we can't go back and see all the "Might haves" and "Could have beens". This song is great also.

I think it's saying take chances... don't be afraid of the choices you make... and don't live in fear of "what might happen" if we don't take the chance we will never know... and time will eventually explain everything when it's all said and done..

short and sweet -take chances and don't regret the past-

Oh yeah and the lyrics up there are incomplete, these are the correct ones, unsure about the part in brackets.. it's really low so its difficult to hear..
