| The past is a Pandora’s Box
|
| And truth is just a paradox
|
| Like promising to never lie
|
| Let sleeping dogs and lovers lie
|
| You say our love is immortal
|
| Like the blood of a sea turtle
|
| But wasn’t dear Dorian Gray
|
| Lone as an asteroid in space
|
| (Pre-chorus)
|
| The clock puts its hands round
|
| The hourglass waist
|
| (Chorus)
|
| Like a tree that falls alone
|
| In the woods without a sound
|
| I can’t be sure that I exist
|
| When you are not around
|
| From Socrates to Aristotle
|
| Man’s greatest thoughts and deeds
|
| Are mere love notes in cheap beer bottles
|
| Floating out to sea
|
| We placed our bets about his fate
|
| Standing over Shroedinger’s grave
|
| As Pavlov’s dog chased the cat
|
| His heart bled like a red Rorschach
|
| (Pre-chorus)
|
| (Chorus) |
