[ Featuring the Traveling Show ]
Time slips as the seconds release
I got the isotope targeting the wound of the beast
I hear the kssshhh static
The hum of the room tone
If the radiation levels don't settle we're in the red zone
Cogs lock
The clock goes still
Heat lightning in the sky, I copy, fire at will
I wake up before the signal connects
Every time a little less the man I was while I slept
It doesn't take a mind-reader
To see the worry gleaming in your eyes, love
It doesn't take a mind-reader
To know we're ticking
T-ticking like a time bomb
Hang on
To the flashbang
Cuz when the light fades
Wave goodbye to the good old days
Hang on to the space
Between our heartbeats
They tick away like time bombs
Lord, please
Before the seconds turn round
Let me live forever in the countdown
Smoke leaks from the calendar page
I swear our bodies might be gone but still the shadows remain
Feel like a broke clock stopped an hour to dawn
Seems I'm never right and twice a day I somehow wind up more wrong
Inside my eyes
A memory's burned
Looks a little like a mirror with the colors reversed
Stare at the sun trying to wipe it away
I finally wind up blind but still the memory stays
It doesn't take a mind-reader
To see the worry gleaming in your eyes, love
Don't need no dosimeter
To know we're ticking
T-ticking like a time bomb
Hang on
To the flashbang
Cuz when the light fades
Wave goodbye to the good old days
Hang on to the space
Between our heartbeats
They tick away like time bombs
Lord, please
Before the seconds turn round
Let me live forever in the countdown
Hang on
To the flashbang
Cuz when the light fades
Wave goodbye to the good old days
Hang on to the space
Between our heartbeats
They tick away like time bombs
Lord, please
Before the seven horns sound
Let me live forever in the countdown
