Lyrics:
Its nail is rusty, holding it tight
years now ruined, body as if in old age
empty wall without anything, to give it beauty
only this watch distracts me.
Black markers stuck, always showing nine
useless old watch, resurrected again
twice a day, fooling me twice
twice to wake me up, from illusory dreams.
If you look at the clock, these two moments
one in the morning and one at night, fleeting and silent
the clock comes to life and time stops
in perfect harmony, with the number nine.
There are moments of fullness and they don’t know it
and they insist on wanting, of living constantly
they will remain tied to their gray selves
in their constant gait, without protection.
Some time ago for the first time, I felt like it was changing me
I wanted to cling on, and to be under its control
I want this moment to stay, forever addicted
in the prison of my memory, painted red.
And when one day passes, this fleeting moment
when all clocks, continue to count
their monotonous course, a mundane life
my watch will be silent, but the others will still ring.
And when the others keep climbing, their own Golgotha
my watch, will be moving toward its end
losing its gait, remaining silent
my old watch, inactive and maybe dead.
And when the others keep climbing, their own Golgotha
my watch, will be moving toward its end
losing its gait, remaining silent
my old watch, inactive and maybe dead.
