Clocktower

Awake, with the dawn of the day
The townsfolk all work and go about their charades
Illegible signs, strung about empty stores
The shiver of doubt, I've been here before

Clocktower
Can you tell me the time
I've got these thoughts
In the back of the mind

Clocktower
How long has it been
Something's wrong
What was it again

The town, in the shade of the moon
The clockwork cogs, clicking in tune
Blood-red eyes, frozen in pain
It all goes around, again and again and again and again

Clocktower
Can you tell me the time
I've got these thoughts
In the back of the mind

Clocktower
How long has it been
Something's wrong
Can you tell me again

Clocktower, clocktower, give me a day
Just one more hour and I'll slip away
Clocktower, clocktower, I need more time
A minute, a second, a chance to rewind

I'm turning the time back and playing with fire
Or lost in a loop with my free will expired
Or what if that I am just stuck in repeating
This nightmare again and I'm just left here screaming

I just need more time
