The Race Called Time
Embracing the Rush of Life's Ticking Clock
Lyrics
Open your eyes in the morning
Awakening in the morning, beginning of a new day.
Cold feet on the floor got ya mourning
Feeling reluctance or sadness, possibly due to challenges.
Tick tick on the clock won't stop droning
The persistent sound of the clock, symbolizing the unstoppable march of time.
Outside the rain is pouring
Setting a gloomy atmosphere with the rain outside.
The hands are making moves like a demon
Time's relentless progress, portrayed as a relentless force with demonic attributes.
Speeding past you my you'll be screaming
Life moving quickly, with potential distress or surprise.
There is no time to be stopping
No time for pause or reflection.
Cause if you do you'll be sobbing
Warning about the consequences of stopping or hesitating.
Stare at the clock
Encouraging focus on the passing time.
Now don't you dare say
Challenging any suggestion that the day is already over.
That it's the end of another day
Rejecting the notion that it's the end of the day.
Now I don't mind
Acceptance of the passing of days.
That days are passing
Acknowledging the passage of time.
But now they're really not lasting
Expressing concern about time slipping away too quickly.
Turn back the clock
Yearning to reverse time.
Look at your watch
Checking the time on a watch, a symbol of the constant awareness of time.
Is it me or that
Questioning if time is accelerating.
Time is moving fast
Perception of time moving swiftly.
This little game is a riddle
Life portrayed as a challenging puzzle with no clear resolution.
With no end it's all superficial
Highlighting the superficial nature of life's challenges.
We're all playing a part if not a little
Everyone playing a role, big or small, in the ongoing drama of life.
And when you depart it's sacrificial
Suggesting that departing from life has a sacrificial aspect.
Stare at the clock
Reiteration of the theme of monitoring time.
Now don't you dare say
Challenging the perception that the day is already over.
That it's the end of another day
Rejecting the idea that the day has concluded.
Now I don't mind
Acceptance of the passage of days.
That days are passing
Acknowledging the passing of time.
But now they're really not lasting
Expressing concern about time slipping away too quickly.
Turn back the clock
Yearning to reverse time.
Look at your watch
Checking the time on a watch, emphasizing constant awareness of time.
Is it me or that
Questioning if time is accelerating.
Time is moving fast
Perception of time moving swiftly.
Stare at the clock
Reiteration of the theme of monitoring time.
Now don't you dare say
Challenging the perception that the day is already over.
That it's the end of another day
Rejecting the idea that the day has concluded.
Now I don't mind
Acceptance of the passage of days.
That days are passing
Acknowledging the passing of time.
But now they're really not lasting
Expressing concern about time slipping away too quickly.
