Like Clockwork
Embracing Change: Like Clockwork's Journey of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
It's dark and lonely in this light
Feeling isolated and desolate even in brightness.
So I packed up my things and I held on tight
Decided to leave, clutching onto belongings tightly.
Suit and tie, I'm feeling good
Wearing formal attire and experiencing positivity.
Is this what it's like? maybe I could lace up my shoes and begin again
Questioning if this situation is typical; contemplating starting anew.
Fall in love with myself, my old friend
Embracing self-love and reconnecting with oneself.
Just like clockwork, you're on my mind
Consistently thinking about someone regularly.
And as the hands turn, you take all of my time
That person consumes a significant portion of time as time passes.
Dreading on the night I go home
Anticipating a future moment with reluctance.
Hard to break up the dialog I've kept to myself
Struggling to share inner thoughts with others.
Better not tip the hourglass, better not get some real help
Warning against seeking genuine assistance, maintaining a facade.
Suit and tie, are you kidding me? Just who in your life would take you seriously?
Questioning the credibility of oneself in formal attire.
I put posture to pavement, but I'm pacing in place
Physically moving but mentally stagnant.
Try to outrun the hour hand, while the minute hand sweeps my legs
Attempting to evade time's passage but feeling overwhelmed by it.
Every second is precious, if you put in the work
Emphasizing the value of time and effort.
Because these problems they come around, just like clockwork
Challenges reoccur in a predictable manner.
Do you remember when I drove you home?
Recalling a past instance of assisting someone.
You were too tired back then to know
That person was unaware due to fatigue.
The way I feel for you, how hard I fell
Expressing deep emotions and a significant fall for someone.
As we lit fire to this old motel
Metaphorically setting ablaze a relationship or experience.
So pull me closer, this I know
Desiring proximity and intimacy despite challenges.
The flames won't burn out, they will only grow
Belief that emotions will intensify rather than diminish.
So will you wait for me?
Inquiring if the person will stay despite circumstances.
