Master of the Pendulum
[Aaron:]
Who"˜s the one who"˜s stretching out his hand
Is it it or is it me that won"˜t lose hold
Take on to the pendulum and sway
Like a mistletoe I"˜m clinging to the cold, yeah
[Watchmaker:]
I am the trellis for those in need to twine around
The rock of ages for those who"˜re meant to wander around
I got no time for a break and we got no time to waste
I"˜ll save it up in the pace, I"˜ll quantify thoughts away
that you don"˜t need anyway, oh what a beautiful day...
[Aaron:]
Tic toc tic toc
Someone's watching over me
[Watchmaker:]
Begging for a dance
While your sands are running out
Rigid and firm"˜s what I hold in my hands
Tick away time, I allot and I divide
Master of the hands that guide you
Run if you can while the war drum"˜s ticking on
Ancient of days, I"˜m the shouldering pace
I will make you mine, I allot and I divide
Master of the hands that push you
That"˜s who I am.
The master of these hands
I lead the horse to the water and I make it drink
I"˜m here to force precision just on everything
[Aaron:]
I feel your breath in my neck
I feel you behind my back
And as I"˜m turning around
There's just this frightening sound
I feel it everywhere
Oh I know that you"˜re there...
Tic toc tic toc
Someone's watching over me
Begging for a dance while your sands are running out
Rigid and firm"˜s what you hold in your hands
Tick away time, you allot and you divide
Master of the hands that guide you
Run if you can while the war drum"˜s ticking on
Ancient of days: you"˜re the shouldering pace
[Watchmaker:]
I will make you mine, I allot and I divide
Master of the hands that push you
[Aaron:]
Angels fall
Time's gonna winnow all
Dying dreams
Right from wrong
Dwell in a run
Turn the wheel
Something"˜s reaching out for me
[Watchmaker:]
Begging for a dance
While your sands are running out
Rigid and firm"˜s what I hold in my hands
Tick away time, I allot and I divide
Master of the hands that guide you
Run if you can while the war drum"˜s ticking on
Ancient of days, I"˜m the shouldering pace
I will make you mine, I allot and I divide
Master of the hands that push you
