Clocks ticking away      Life is a gamble   You got the loosing hand.   Slam down your fist   Cause nothing works as planned.   You look to the future   It's so far away   But then you look at the years   They flew by and it seemed like yesterday.      Times flying by   You're at the top of the world   You don't know the word defeated.   After all is complete   A quick flick of the switch lights out   And now you feel cheated.      Chorus      Out of life out of time   Look for the truth but where   Can you find, cause all that you had   Is now taken away.      2X Faded away      Broken back and calloused hands   Is all that you'll find on the working man   Because he stepped to the plate   Went against the grain   And now we see the faces   That are mourning in pain.   Clocks ticking away   No turning back   You go to the place you retreated.   The little that you had   Been cut short from your wasted life   And still you feel cheated      Chorus
