Clockwork sky
Spinning over us
Over us
Hands in time
Kicking up the dust
All of us
We fall
We fly
Like we’re never gonna die tonight
Clockwork sky
Winding up our wild hearts
Seven steps to the edge
I’m counting wrong on purpose
Feet don’t match the lights
But my chest hits every surface
You lean into my ear
Say
“Leave the world on read”
We’re tangled in the off-beat
But it’s perfect in my head
Sweat drips
Slow-motion
On a stranger’s painted jacket
I lose you
Then I find you
On the wrong side of the racket
Spin me through the fracture
Where the rhythm cuts in halves
We’re laughing at the chaos
While the floor folds
Then snaps
Breathe in
The gears are turning
We’re hanging from the hands of time
Breathe out
The sky is burning
Jump
And let the world rewind
Clockwork sky
Tick back
Tick back
Start again
Same first line
But it hits me like a different day
Clockwork sky
Spin me to the start again
