[Verse] Step through the gilded door with a lock sealed tight, The air feels heavy, the silence wrong With ticking hands, time feels slight, The turning gears grinding a song. A lifetime climb through rusted steel, It seems time itself stopped the wheel [Verse] Upward, ascend with shallow breath, Each step hurts like lingering death. The gears begin to creak and groan, A scraping hiss from walls of stone. At last within the tower's dome A lonely feeling so far from home [Chorus] Time itself… has frozen in this tower, No way to count the fading hours. In the sky the sun can’t ascend Only despair waits at the end Now carve a path, brave and steadfast, Through this maze of clockwork and glass [Bridge] Emotions swing forward and arc Love and hate both lost in the dark Is it deep rage, joy, or forgiving peace? Have you let go of your wrath? But life does flow across the path, And calm awaits when rage does cease. [Instrumental] [Chorus] Time itself… has frozen in this tower, No way to count the fading hours. In the sky the sun can’t ascend Only despair waits at the end Now carve a path, brave and steadfast, Through this maze of clockwork and glass [Verse] Stalled at the peak with nothing in hand The hourglass turned, no falling of sand Lightning dances along steel, A crackling of hope and peace to feel. Walk forward a steady pace in stride, On this journey release your pride [Chorus] Time itself… has frozen in this tower, No way to count the fading hours. In the sky the sun can’t ascend Only despair waits at the end Now carve a path, brave and steadfast, Through this maze of clockwork and glass [Chorus] Time itself… has frozen in this tower, No way to count the fading hours. In the sky the sun can’t ascend Only despair waits at the end Now carve a path, brave and steadfast, Through this maze of clockwork and glass
