Verse
Last pulse still in my bones
Clock hand crawling down the wall
Gears keep whispering I'm late for nothing at all
Cold steel floor beneath my feet
Bass drum counting backwards with every step
The same four bars the whole dark night
My heart is trying to catch up
Every rhythm running through me like a vein
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the clock turn slow?
Is it time or is it nothing?
Tell me where I go from here
Is this end or just another start?
Is this darkness or just light?
Who's counting who in black of night
Chorus
Clockwork pulse, clockwork pulse
Every tick a heartbeat I trust
Steel inside my chest
Every second that never stops
Clockwork pulse, clockwork pulse
Verse 2
Sweat on the collar where I used to sweat
Hands still counting down what's left
Gears keep turning but nothing's new
Nothing moves and everything moves fast
Shadows hold the light
Same four bars forever playing in my head
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the clock turn slow?
Is it time or is it nothing?
Tell me where I go from here
Is this end or just another start?
Is this darkness or just light?
Who's counting who in black of night
Chorus
Clockwork pulse, clockwork pulse
Every tick a heartbeat I trust
Steel inside my chest
Every second that never stops
Clockwork pulse, clockwork pulse
Bridge
What if the beat slows down to nothing at all?
No hands left to count it back to me
Who counts who when nobody's counting time
Who holds the pulse when it's lost its rhyme
What if every tick is just a lie
What if I'm already gone and this floor still spins
Is this heartbeat of mine or just some machine that keeps on going
Chorus
Clockwork pulse, clockwork pulse
Every tick a heartbeat I trust
Steel inside my chest
Every second that never stops
Clockwork pulse, clockwork pulse
