TIME

I've run with the whirlwinds and I've fought with the law
Rose up in your doorways when you thought you had seen it all
Ten minutes passing and there's clouds all in your head
You can hear me knocking, but you know I'm far from dead
And it's time

Though it's hard to remember, you can never forget
Take a taste when the wind blows and see the diamonds in your head
Silver spoon is in your garden, Mother Nature breathes
So take a stand in the pathway and run, run with me

Time keeps on going
Keeps me alive, keeps me growing

Crystal ball sees The Madman, through the eyes of The Sun
Tells the tale of a lifetime, his spirit marches on
And with the change of a season, take me up where I'm free
Let me stand in the gateway, this fire I must see

Time keeps on going
Keeps me alive, keeps me growing

When the hand of The Piper brings evil to his knees
Hear the crash of the hammer strike in misery
Take me up, take me now
Take the bullet from my brain
Can't keep on counting, counting time

Hear the scream of the wasteland, where The Joker is wild
And if you dance with the children, hear the laughter of denial
Silver spoon is in the garden, Mother Nature breathes
If it's all an illusion, every poet is a king

Time keeps on going
Keeps me alive, keeps me growing
