The Clock Unwound Lyrics
Sadness whispers as I rise, with morning light disguised
Secrets lying in bed, asleep and by my side
I walk on burning coals in hopes of cheating time
Clockwork gears turn to rust in pools of soured wine
My precious childhood laughter, once sent out to play
Lies now entombed in lead to save it from decay
The garden overgrown with dreams from yesterday
Borne on broken wings in shades of grey
The garden overgrown with words from yesterday
Broken wings with nothing left to say
The future’s golden promise crumbles into dust
Fills cracks of stale desires with shards of broken trust
The garden overgrown with dreams from yesterday
Borne on broken wings in shades of grey
The garden overgrown with words from yesterday
Broken wings with nothing left to say
Memory is a monster who roams his gilded cage
Beckoning to lonely shadows who hide in haunted caves
Memories last forever, until they can’t be found
Once lost, they slip into the night. The clock of life unwound

Secrets lying in bed, asleep and by my side
I walk on burning coals in hopes of cheating time
Clockwork gears turn to rust in pools of soured wine
Lies now entombed in lead to save it from decay
The garden overgrown with dreams from yesterday
Borne on broken wings in shades of grey
Broken wings with nothing left to say
Fills cracks of stale desires with shards of broken trust
Borne on broken wings in shades of grey
The garden overgrown with words from yesterday
Broken wings with nothing left to say
Beckoning to lonely shadows who hide in haunted caves
Memories last forever, until they can’t be found
Once lost, they slip into the night. The clock of life unwound
