I'm not disconnectedI'm not unaware,I'm in one place at one time,I'm neither here nor there,I'm hooked to the mainstream,Tuned in to the world,Plugged into my surroundingsNot out on a limb,I'm thinking in a straight line,I'm thinking that these thoughts are mine,My heart is beating oh-so-fastI feel the hours crashingBecause my mind keeps time like clockwork,And I think in sync like clockwork.She's done away with emotion,She sees things clearly now,She says she sees it all from her room,And it looks so small from her room,It's alright, it's alright,I'm on your side......for a while,She thinks time is a concept by which we measure our pain(she'll say it again)She wants to say it again, but she doesn't have time,And now her heart beats time like clockworkAnd she thinks in sync like clockwork.SongtexteCount the hours, count the months and the minutes,You're born in tears and you die in the pain and that's your limitYou're looking for a reason but there's none there,Why don't you admit itWe'll make the most of what we've got, that's the ticketMy, my, my.I stayed in that room a long, long timeAnd watched the seasons gliding pastAnd hey...what's the matter?We've got time, lot's of time,It's alright, it's alrightI'm on your side for a while,We'll wind upWe'll slow downWe'll speed up or slow down and we'll maybe overwind....But now our minds beat timeLike clockwork Aus Songtexte Mania
