Clockwork

[Verse 1] I hear them say They say that you were never real You look at me And whisper bliss into my ear So they say They say that time will always heal But look at me And ask me how I really feel I can't stop time! I can't relive my past! I'm left with a vacant memory Of how my life is moving way too fast [Pre-Chorus] Turn back! [Chorus] It's just like clockwork (Clockwork!) Watch me kiss my youth goodbye (Goodbye!) All I wanted was to turn back time (To turn back time!) [Bridge] The time lays waste to ashes My soul lays waste the broken mind The time lays waste to ashes My soul lays waste the broken mind [Pre-Chorus] Turn back! [Chorus] It's just like clockwork (Clockwork!) Watch me kiss my youth goodbye (Goodbye!) All I wanted was to turn back time (To turn back time!) [Verse 2] I'm begging on my knees Turn back! Turn back! Oh, won't you spare me please? I'm pleading! I'm grieving! I can't fulfill my eternity Eternity please, let me be Just let me live again [Pre-Chorus] Turn back! [Chorus] It's just like clockwork (Clockwork!) Watch me kiss my youth goodbye All I wanted was to turn back time [Verse 3] We'll say our goodbyes Then slowly lay down to die Our lives like clockwork Another second simply flies on by Goodbye! [Verse 4] And now they'll say! They'll say that I was never real Forgotten life! A song that no one sang again And I will be A memory that will never heal I turn to God She whispers bliss into my ear [Bridge] It's just like clockwork Just let me go Let me go! [Outro] The time lays waste to ashes My soul lays waste the broken mind
