This song talks about the never-stopping time and how death reaches everything that ever was alive. This song was added as a Bonus Track on the Japanese Version of the album “Blood of the Nations” and on its digipak version aswell.
The hands keep on turning, the pendulum just swings
Prisoners upon this rock, flying without wings
Captured in a moment, still the hours chimed
Joining closer as we sifted with the sands of time
Paranoid dimensions, guilts fall into place
Driven by an unseen force, swelling into space
[Bridge]
At beyond the rainbow, cross the Milky Way
Passengers without a choice, slowly turning grey
[Chorus]
On through the night, shine on forever
Going insane as we ride the time machine
Waiting for no one, relative to none
Answering to not a thing, except the rising sun
Bouncing on this fabric, at the speed of light
Connecting points of future's past, is its only plight
Passengers without a choice, hanging by a string
Spanning with the hands of time, flying without wings
[Chorus]
On through the night, shine on forever
Going insane as we ride the time machine
