Tick Tock

[Intro]
Tick-Tock, what awaits us on the other side?
Time is eager to reveal what it's found out
Tick-Tock, tell us briefly what the judge said
Ask him to give us more time and to slow down

[Verse 1]
The notes of this music box are my life's melody
I was told that it would play non-stop, for eternity
My coffin still grows in the forest, I breathe with its leaves
It nurses nests, and spring has not yet budded on it
I have a lot of time, you see, no one wound up the clock for me
So many lines yet to write, so many songs left unsung

[Chorus]
Tick-Tock, what awaits us on the othеr side?
Time is eagеr to reveal what it's found out
Tick-Tock, tell us briefly what the judge said
Ask him to give us more time and to slow down
Tick-Tock, what is waiting for us on another side?
If you're first to overcross, give me the lowdown
Tick-Tock, tell me briefly what the judge said
Did he leave the patience to justify us again?

[Verse 2]
So many grains of sand in everyone's eyes left to count
Forgetting about the stone in my own
So many disguises to try on
Is there yet a role unplayed, that aligns?
Many folks know life is the game, or maybe
We are the circus animals
We are relatively easy to tame
Our earth spins like a carousel
Greedy clowns our puppet masters, and
How they even manage to draw our attention
To alter the values and standards
We serve their evil plans by wasting our precious time
Oh-oh

[Chorus]
Tick-Tock, what awaits us on the other side?
Time is eager to reveal what it's found out
Tick-Tock, tell us briefly what the judge said
Ask him to give us more time and to slow down
Tick-Tock, what is waiting for us on another side?
If you're first to overcross, give me the lowdown
Tick-Tock, tell me briefly what the judge said
Did he leave the patience to justify us again?

[Outro]
The notes of this music box are my life's melody
One day it will stop, this is the author's warranty
