Black as Time

[Intro: Mark Robertson]
Time is short, time is endless
Time is linear but also a relative factor
That moves rather unnoticed form point A to B
Time is a force not to be taken lightly
Because time never forgets
Time heals nothing

Time is a black hole that consumes energy, ambition, and love
Time is dangerous
Time, quite frankly, doesn't give a shit
And above all, time is black
It is your enemy
Time is decline and decay time is death

It follow you everywhere you go until it inexorably leaves you behind
Time counts your every step, every year, month, week, and minute
Tick-tock, tick-tock
And when the reaper breathes you in the neck
It is there, stealing the very limited precious shares of time that are left
Slowly and almost unnoticed, second by second
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
It continues the countdown closer to your grave
Until it finally stops

Time is black

[Verse 1: Robert Lowe]
She's the truth, oh hail the Queen
The universal binding seem
Life and death, every second
Kneel, thy majesty is present

[Chorus: Robert Lowe]
Time is black
Time is black

[Interlude: Mark Robertson]
Time is the sword of destruction
A faceless conquerer
The master of doom

[Verse 2: Robert Lowe]
Time will lead me to my grave
It never sleeped, never saved
The queen of time rules over us all
Will see us rise, will see us fall

[Chorus: Robert Lowe]
Time is black
Black as the sun
Time is black
Black as time

Black as time
