the letting go
is ever hard
when these moments mark the twain of me
the depth of who i am
the watch runs down
the watch runs down
i know
i know
seconds count
and still, i run
toward that line
the leader crossed it long ago
but i'll try to finish strong
i know you wait
i take my time
i've a dozen clocks around this house
and all of them are wrong
the watch runs down
the watch runs down
i know (brother, do you have the time?)
i know (sister, do you know?)
seconds count
the watch runs down
seconds count
the watch runs down
seconds count
i did my best
