Clockwork Songtext
von Butcher Boy

Clockwork Songtext

I hold a torch to you
I spill a silhouette on the air that′s 'round you
I gather books and I read with missionary zeal
Tattooing tears on my cheek to show how much they mean
I pout ′til I'm so righteous I can't see

I don′t know why we′re stuck
In such a muddle of cloth, it should run like clockwork
But you can't just do what you want
And wear your face and shirt like a badge of war
Though every stitch and seam impresses me
And I′m so righteous I can't see


I steal the torch from you
I steal the silhouette on the world that′s 'round you
I keep your shadows with mine
Too stupid and stutter my dumb butterflies
It′s hard to show how much this means
When, secretly, I only want to feel

You look so lovingly
Upon a decade apart, but the things still drive me
To when the battle was lost
I wear the days and hours like a badge of war
And I'm so glad to see how much this means
But, secretly, I only want to feel
In these walls around me
