"The pendulum swings
tick tick tick
the earth turns around me
spin spin spin

but i stay the same,
cold as ice
heart frozen,
barely beating once or twice

Time has abandoned me,
this I know for a fact
but what have i done?
what shameless act

doth make me unable
to escape this by death
in eternal sleep i find
no comfort, no rest.

spring, winter,
summer, fall
I've sat through everything,
seen it all

and yet my time
stretches on to no end
my path as unclear
as the name of the wind

and so the pendulum still swings
tick tock, tick tock
the only thing changing
is the face of that wretched clock."
