Clockwork Lyrics by Burning Down Alaska

Values & Virtues

2015

[Verse 1]
You know you’ve waited far too long
Another day already gone
Through all the times you stayed unhurt
So many lessons never learned

[Pre-Chorus]
You never tasted any blood
How can you say you understood
What if a dream’s price is your life
What if there’s only tonight

[Chorus]
Waiting and waiting while time is taking
The best of me, the best of me
(yeah)
The best of me, the best of me

[Verse 2]
Come take your chance
Come take the key
A heart unlocked can set you free
From all the ties that hold you down
Believe me you are not alone

[Bridge]
(ohoho)
(ohoho oh)
There’s no time to stop the clocks
(ohoho)
(ohoho oh)
There’s no time to stop the clocks

[Pre-Chorus]
You never tasted any blood
How can you say you understood
What if a dream’s price is your life
What if there’s only tonight

[Chorus]
Waiting and waiting while time is taking
The best of me, the best of me
(yeah)
The best of me, the best of me

[Outro]
Waiting and waiting while time is taking
The best of me, the best of me
Waiting and waiting while time is taking
The best of me, the best of me
The best of me, the best of me
The best of me, the best of me
