Like Clockwork

I'm not disconnected
 I'm not unaware
 I'm in one place at one time
 I'm neither here nor there
 I'm hooked to the mainstream, tuned into the world
 Plugged into my surroundings, not out on a limb
 I'm thinking in a straight line
 I'm thinking that these thoughts are mine
 My heart is beating oh so fast
 I feel the hours crashing down
 My mind beats time like clockwork
 And I think in sync like clockwork

 She's done away with emotion
 She sees things clearly now
 She says she sees it all from her room
 And it looks so small from her room
 It's alright (It's alright), it's alright (It's alright)
 I'm on your side for a while
 She thinks time is a concept by which we measure our age
 She wants to say it again, but she don't have time
 Because her heart beats time like clockwork
 And she thinks in sync like clockwork
 ♪
 Count the hours, count the months and minutes
 You're born in tears and you die in pain and that's your limit
 You're lookin' for so many reasons but there's none there
 Why don't you admit it
 We'll make the most of what we've got, that's the ticket
 My, my, my, my, my, my

 I stayed in that room a long, long time
 And watched the seasons gliding by
 And hey! What's the matter?
 We've got time, lots of time
 It's alright (It's alright), it's alright (It's alright)
 I'm on your side for a while
 We wind up, we slow down
 We speed up, move around, and we maybe overwind
 Because our minds beat time like clockwork
 And we think in sync like clockwork
 And our minds beat time like clockwork
 And we think in sync like clockwork
