[Verse 1]
The heart
The heart is a lonely and feral creature
And you think it's safe
Locked and leashed in a bone cage
[Pre-Chorus]
But no heart will ever be safe
Against the devastation of time
[Chorus]
We are burning the midnight oil too fast
(Too fast) We're out of time
Shipwrecked at Point Nemo as outcasts
(Outcasts) Caught in the clock's careless march
[Verse 2]
And the clock
It makes sure that time flies
It's up to you
To be the passenger or pilot
[Pre-Chorus]
At some junctures
You won't be able to choose, choose
You have to follow
The cruel flow of time
[Chorus]
We are burning the midnight oil too fast
(Too fast) We're out of time
Shipwrecked at Point Nemo as outcasts
(Outcasts) Caught in the clock's careless march
[Post-Chorus]
We had a moment
But it's called that (Called that)
It's called "a moment" for a reason
Nobody wins with time
With time as the opponent
[Bridge 1]
Ticktock tick
Feel the undercurrent
Ticktock tick
Of remorse
Ticktock tick
Pulling you under
Ticktock tick
To Point Nemo
[Bridge 2]
We had a moment
But it's called that
It's called "a moment" for a reason
Nobody wins with time
With time as the opponent
[Chorus]
We are burning the midnight oil too fast
(Too fast) We're out of time
Shipwrecked at Point Nemo as outcasts
Caught in the clock's careless march
We are burning the midnight oil too fast
(Too fast) We're out of time
Shipwrecked at Point Nemo as outcasts
(Outcasts) Caught in the clock's careless march
