the watch of time

Too Frightening to listen to a stranger

Too Beautiful to put your pride in danger

You’re waiting for someone to understand you

But you’re got demons in your closet

And you’re screaming out to stop it

Saying life’s begun to cheat you

Friends are out to beat you

Grab onto what you can scramble for

Don’t let the tears linger on inside now

Cos it’s sure time you gained control

If I can help you if I can help you

If I can help you just let me know
