Regina Spektor - The Clocks Were Asleep lyrics
[Regina Spektor - The Clocks Were Asleep lyrics]
And asleep's how we found them
We found them and wound them again
But they didn't last us till morning
A warning:
That you never should force mechanical things
They are not meant for hardship, they'll snap
If you tighten and wind them
And pry them and try
Just stop right now now's the time to let go
And stop right now
Now's the time to break free
The parakeet sitting inside the gazebo
Was sighing though she shouldn't've known
How to do anything except tweet tweet tweet
The gentleman giving the Power presentation
Felt the bayonet scar on his shoulder
He opened a warm trickle of blood through his
Fresh-pressed shirt
So stop right now now's the time to let go
And stop right now
Now's the time to break free oh, oh
Free
How much do you really know you?
