[Verso 1]
Are you telling me it's over
Disintegrating lost and there's nothing I can do
Before you drop another verbal bomb
Can I arm myself with Cezanne's 16 shades of blue
[Pre Coro 1]
As my heart is slowly ripping into pieces
Disconnecting from the circuits of my mind
"You'll get over it" you say
"in time"
In time?
[Coro]
If the clocks are black
Absorbing everything but
A remembering
How we made it that
Clocks are black
[Verso 2]
You say "get over it if 50 is the new black
Hooray this could be your lucky day"
But my cables they are surging
Almost over loading as you disengage
[Pre Coro 2]
Could your heart be slowly ripping into pieces
Disconnecting from the circuits of your mind
"We'll get over it" you say
"In time"
In time
[Coro]
If the clocks are black
Absorbing everything but
A remembering
How we made it that
Clocks are black
[Breakdown]
"That's it you're done
You've screwed up your life"
Before you've begun
There are those who say
I am now too old to play
[Verso 3]
See over there at 33 she fears she'll lose her job
Because they hear the ticking of her clock
At only 15 - I said 15 - they say her future's bleak
She should have started this at 3
[Pre Coro 3]
As her heart is slowly ripping into pieces
Disconnecting from the circuits of her mind
"She'll get over it" you say
"In time"
In time?
Stop Father Time
[Coro]
If the clocks are black
Absorbing everything but
A remembering
How we made it that
Clocks are black
[Conclusi�n]
Before you drop another verbal bomb
Can I arm myself
With Cezanne's 16 shades of blue
