Clocks - It Bites

Through this snow we fall winter standing tall

Like a blanket she cloaks this indifference

So I cover my eyes to the sight of your recall

Trees in white remain, dressed to cover shame

As I stand here in beautiful symmetry

A chill hurries over as if to place the blame

And tick tock sing the clocks

I’ve been waiting for hours for you

Swing swing pendulum

I’m still trying so hard to get through

And how we all fall down

Hedgerow dark disguise, Evensong abide

And I’m wishing away this absurdity

Sing loudly and pray to the song of compromise, no lies

And tick tock sing the clocks

I’ve been waiting for hours for you

Swing swing pendulum

I’m still trying so hard to get through to you

And how we all fall down

And ring this rose around, there’s no sound

Clocks keep turning round

Clocks keep turning round round round round

Through this snow we fall blinded by it all

As I stand here in beautiful symmetry

A chill hurries over as if to place the blame

And tick tock sing the clocks

I’ve been waiting for hours for you

Swing swing pendulum

I’m still trying so hard to get through

And tick tock sing the clocks

I’ve been waiting for hours for you

Swing swing pendulum

I’m still trying so hard to get through to you

Clocks keep turning round

Clocks keep turning round round round round

Clocks keep turning round

Clocks keep turning round round round round
