Time Ticking Time Ticking Time

by Caneel
(Earth)

Time is slowly ticking by
time is paper, infinite-fold
time does not forgive
time will not release its hold

time is flying on invisible wings
and swirling past in showers of gold
time is going too fast to last
time is ticking and getting old

time is a master and you are the slave
time is the darkness inside a deep cave
time is winter and endless cold
time is so fast and suddenly you're old
time is rushing and you're too bold
time is ending and you are sold
