And in the dark he sits aloneTo work his final hours bleedingWhile unconcerned upon the wallThe clock it ticks away the timeNo need for words for in the darkAll words have long since lost their meaningStill when they whisper in his earHe tries to read between the linesWhat I see in the night?What I feel in your heart?All your dreams all your liesCan you tell them apart?See the hands on the clockAre you watching them turn?For your candle's quite lowWe've been watching it burnDo you lie here awakeAs the shadows look on?Should they cry for your sake?Should you sleep in their arms?For the shadows see allAnd they rarely forgetEvery dream that you've hadEvery act you regret
