Lyrics
Time is seeping
Time is gradually passing away
Between my hands
Time is slipping away from my grasp
The clock is ticking
Awareness of time passing, emphasized by the ticking clock
Days fly by
Days are swiftly going by
Time is seeping
Continuation of the idea that time is slowly escaping
Into my thoughts
Time is influencing and permeating my thoughts
There's no mistaking
No doubt or confusion about what is destined to happen
What's to come
Anticipation of the future
I live my life
Expressing the inevitability of living one's life
I have no choice
Living life without the ability to choose otherwise
I live my life
Reiteration of the lack of choice in living life
I have no choice
Repetition for emphasis, emphasizing the absence of a voice
No voice
Emphasis on the inability to express oneself
The lines not getting
Indication that time is not becoming shorter
Any shorter
Description of the path being followed, suggesting a challenging journey
The road we're taking
Confirmation of the constrained and challenging path
Is strait and narrow
Looking ahead to the future, with uncertainty
Looking forward
The lack of clarity in the future
Nothing is clear
Assurance that one thing is definite—the impending end
One thing is certain
Reiteration of living life without a choice
The end is near
Acknowledgment that the end is approaching
I live my life
Repetition of the theme of living life without choice
I have no choice
Emphasis on the lack of alternatives in living one's life
I live my life
Restating the absence of choice in life
I have no choice
Repetition for emphasis on having no voice or control
No voice
Final emphasis on the absence of a voice
