Lyrics

I hear the tickin, Tickin of the clock,
I once was young but, But now I’m not
Where’s the dream I dreamed of, Now long forgot,
I hear the tickin of the clock

Where’s the life I long for, Life that once was mine
Why is strength just so elusive, Friends so hard to find
Livin in this cul-de-sac, Exhausts the mind,
Where is the life that once was mine

(chorus)
What’s this desire, That brought us here?
Water, earth and fire, And atmosphere
Dancin in this world of dust and laughin at our fears
What's this desire that brought us here

(repeat chorus)
Now I’ve been around awhile, I’ve begun to wilt
All of my stories have been turned to silt
Walking with wheels and wearing a quilt
Watching myself begin to wilt

(repeat chorus)

(bridge)
letting go, going home,
Turning loose all the minutiae that I own
Yeah turning in, This life on loan,
Coming apart is the part we all must do alone

(repeat chorus)
