He collects the remnants of their desire With best intentions left wasted in suspended animation
But their past home was gone And their longing reborn He had no time to dwell on the problems ahead Reset the watch Advance across Time to time I’ve had to deal with loss
Mine away and feign indifference A grander plan is afoot He sees stoically that some trials are lost They’re swept away in one breath
Do you think that he stops? Yet he searches for what? And the drills they relentlessly grapple with zeal Deadlock. Misplace. Erase. Take stock
Sometimes you just need to adjust
It’s not the end of the world But you’re acting so strangely Is it catharsis I seek?
Still their past home was gone and their longing reborn He had no time to dwell on the problems ahead Reset the watch Advance across (Reset the watch) (Advance across) Such risks will come and go at a cost
