Attic dust swirls, sunbeams cut through gloom
Young Thomas finds a trunk, his grandpa's heirloom
A pocket watch gleams, its face cracked and worn
Gears silent, a timepiece old and forlorn
"What's this?" Dad scowls," A useless thing!"
But in Tom's ears, faint tick-tocks sing
Nights pass, hunched over makeshift tools
Bringing life to time, breaking all the rules
(It says)
You're the cog, the spring, the hand, the bell
You're the ebb and flow, the tales time tells
From stardust to twilight, each breath in between
Embrace every note, the discord and serene
In a dim workshop, he toils alone
Antique clocks line dusty shelves
Spare parts over bread and bone
In time's realm, he loses himself
An old timepiece springs back to life
His name echoes, far and wide
Fame cuts like a double-edged knife
In time's maze, he's lost inside
(Again)
You're the cog, the spring, the hand, the bell
You're the ebb and flow, the tales time tells
From stardust to twilight, each breath in between
Embrace every note, the discord and serene
Gray hairs now, Thomas checks the time
His famous shop, full of ticks and chimes
But each precision piece feels like a cage
Trapping him in a gilded, ticking rage
One dawn he packs his trusted case
Leaves a note, "Gone to find my place"
In town squares, he scales the clock towers tall
Setting rhythms free for one and all
(Lets' cheer)
You're the cog, the spring, the hand, the bell
You're the ebb and flow, the tales time tells
From stardust to twilight, each breath in between
Embrace every note, the discord and serene
Brave or timid, cosmos or flame
Each tick unfolds life's game
Embrace the peaks, embrace the falls
Time flows, we're infinite, yet small
(Just sing)
You're the cog, the spring, the hand, the bell
You're the ebb and flow, the tales time tells
From stardust to twilight, each breath in between
Embrace every note, the discord and serene
It's all good, from dust to chimes
Thomas climbed through tick-tock times
Embracing changes, he found his art
Now every clock bears his heart
(Now, time's in your hands)
