What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
The watchmaker works all day and long into the night
2
He pieces things together despite his failing sight
3
Though all the cogs connect with such poetic grace
4
Time has left its curse upon this place
5
Each hour becomes another empty space to fill
6
Wasted with the care and virtues of his skill
7
The watchmaker buries something deep within his thoughts
8
A shadow on the staircase of someone from before
9
This thing is broken now and cannot be repaired
10
Fifty years of compromise and aging bodies shared
11
Eliza dear, you know, there's something I should say
12
I never really loved you, but I'll miss you anyway
13
Well, you were just meant to be temporary
14
While I waited for gold
15
We filled up the years and I found that I liked
16
Having someone to hold
17
But for you I had to wait
18
Until one day it was too late
19
[Repeat x3]
20
Cogs and levers mesh
21
We are bound in death
22
Melt that silver down
23
I'm still inside you
