I envision how you lie awake and agonize
Over ways to bear your day just every night
Re-alignment you're in need of so imploringly
It's the pace that we'll maintain for you

Oh every moment everybody's gonna think alike
Every second will be seized while every in-between
We'll erase to take the tangle from their memory
Maximizing one and all for you

Now into line bring them peace of
Mind by mind, set the pace for all mankind
Let us take away the spaces
In-between their given time

Time to run!
Savior in the clockwork tell me
For how long
Will I wait on the grind
Time flies on
(Time will fly on)
Savior in the clockwork take me back inside
In-between the time

Now am I half asleep or half unconscious,
Half adream?
I can't move as I am stuck in bright lucidity
I can feel and hear and see
But I won't comprehend
I see fire that I won't decipher

I see giant evil tower to a blackened sky
I feel blessed with evidence of what I can't define
Swinging blade of the lowering perpendicular
I see clarity I won't remember

Do I dream
Is it only fantasy
And matter just a thought I see
And time is all they need
To steal away eternity now

Time to run!
Savior in the clockwork tell me
For how long
Will I wait on the grind
Time flies on
(Time will fly on)
Savior in the clockwork take me back inside
In-between the time

You pry into a world too far above
Your head up in the haze
Journey to the birth of the first sun
Into the black womb of space
Father primal space, oh yeah
Who's drawn the light,

Standing at the door to epiphanic realization
A journey to the center of forever
To the mystery of creation

Don't you hear the voice: I'm with you
I'm everywhere and real
You can see me, you can hear me without credence
I'm what your hands can feel

God, I feel I've been away too long
I feel like I've been dreaming

If you'd open up your door to explanation
You would hear the voice of reason screaming
I've seen the ocean swallow the ancient harmony
And I've seen belief and craving swallow sanity
I feel my hand is led to ink between the lines
Tall stories legendising: figments of the lie

At crack of dawn hazy remains above my mind
(Raise your mind)
I scribble down those icons that I can't define
Will they demand account as I'd demand myself
(Raise your mind)
I'll never testify what no man comprehends

And they will tear to pieces what they can't define
(Raise your mind)
If you don't follow your self-preservation drive
They'll crucify the one who won't affiliate
(Raise your mind)
But decorate the children of their own ego's way

Time to run
Savior in the clockwork tell me
For how long
Will I wait on the grind
Time flies on
(Time will fly on)
Savior in the clockwork
Take me back inside
In-between the time

Time to run!
Savior in the clockwork tell me
For how long
Will I wait on the grind
Time flies on
(Time will fly on)
Savior in the clockwork take me back inside
In-between the time
