[00:31.25] The watchmaker works all day, and long into the night
[00:38.29] He pieces things together despite his failing sight
[00:46.63] Though all the cogs connect with such poetic grace
[00:53.36] Time has left its curse upon this place
[01:01.77] Each hour becomes another empty space to fill
[01:08.60] Wasted with the care and virtues of his skill
[01:18.02] The watchmaker buries something deep within his thoughts
[01:25.06] A shadow on the staircase of someone from before
[01:33.26] This thing is broken now and cannot be repaired
[01:40.20] Fifty years of compromise and aging bodies shared
[01:48.55] Eliza dear, you know there's something I should say
[01:55.34] I never really loved you but I'll miss you anyway
[06:30.76] You were just meant to be temporary while I waited for gold
[06:40.99] We filled up the years and I found that
[06:44.06] I liked having someone to hold
[06:51.36] But for you I had to wait
[07:01.28] Until one day it was too late
[09:50.74] Cogs and levers mesh
[09:57.47] We are bound in death
[10:06.33] Melt the silver down
[10:13.06] I'm still inside you
[10:22.01] Cogs and levers mesh
[10:28.71] We are bound in death
[10:37.74] Melt the silver down
[10:44.37] I'm still inside you
[10:53.27] Cogs and levers mesh
[10:59.90] We are bound in death
[11:08.91] Melt the silver down
[11:15.40] I'm still inside you
