The Illuminate Faces of Time
The whole wide world is one giant clock a face of illuminate loveliness,
the dial is a shadow forever nonchalant, passing through each day
invisibly each night, the human race sleeps discerns, tick tock, tick tock,
oh the pulse, oh the vibration, oh that spring coil of gravitation,
careful not to over wind it, as the celestial key turns, tick tock, tick tock
the whole wide world is one giant clock, a face of illuminate loveliness.
This wholesome world is a ball of fire, we are the salt of the earth
mile after mile we trudge towards existence though nothing can allay
the cravings of the soul better than life itself, tick tock, tick tock.
Providence takes us by the hand so there is no need to apprehend,
catch and release the wind it’s all about push n' pull, tick tock, tick tock
the entire world is one giant clock, illuminated by the handles of time.
Tick tock, tick tock, don't blow it this time. xo xo
