- Urthboy f/ Mark Pearl - The Clocks Lyrics
- Uploaded by LOVE4LYRICS at Pastebin.com
- [Verse 1]
- Aeronautical activity is all grounded
- No F16 jets no alarm sounded
- Not even a rumour that a terrorist downed it
- Without any hint of controversy around it
- No police called everybody is accounted
- Coverup unnecessary so no facts shrouded and,
- Traffic grinds to halt leaving streets crowded and
- the authorities don't know nothing about it
- No little old ladies heard saying "oh my!"
- People getting later but not looking to know why
- It's like suddenly the signs said 'Don't Drive'
- Shouldn't someone worry the economy will nosedive?
- The young and ambitious stop as life goes by
- Cities that never sleep caught with a closed eye
- Two year olds get ignored but fail to cry
- By the side of their parents as they look up to the sky
- And the seas would part and they'd part for you
- I'd run anywhere to join you on a path for two and I
- I don't wanna contemplate what I might do
- And if I lose you I'll find you, I will find you
- [Chorus: Mark Pearl - 2X]
- Stop the clocks I'll walk away
- Cos we've got something untamed
- If what's beneath falls through
- Then I'll fall, but I'll fall with you
- [Verse 2]
- As if it never happened a computer went dead
- We could fix this is what an technician would've said.
- Everything froze only one thing spared
- e-mail spam's like cockroach eggs
- People sat in cinemas where darkness glared
- And analysed the blank space like architects
- Systems stopped dead not even half a step
- Dogs stopped barking not cos master said
- A father paused reading to his daughter in bed
- While a bloke stood around looking lost in his shed
- doctors watched on as their patients bled
- Their patients unfazed and intrigued by the red
- For a second y'all suckers stopped trying to get cred
- and the West ceased pumping Islam full of led
- Yeah the Goddamn world sat perched on the fence
- Even analysts hadn't figured out what it meant
- It's why the seas part and they part for you
- I'd ask that you join me on a path for two
- I don't wanna ponder as to what I might do
- And if I lose you I'll find you, I will find you
- [Chorus: Mark Pearl]
- Stop the clocks I'll walk away
- Cos we've got something untamed
- If what's beneath falls through
- Then I'll fall, but I'll fall with you
- Darling let's let them sleep
- Come and lay next to me
- Before we set them free
- I wanna hear your heartbeat
- {*2X*}
- [Verse 3]
- Finally some downtime due to the deadlock
- Electricity is cut back down to the bedrock
- Hordes watch on as we walk by shellshocked
- As if five billion waiting on a bellhop
- We can whisper the things that we need to
- a blanket of silence surrounds when it sweeps through
- The world'll hold on whether or not it agrees to
- and it'll start again but I will never leave you
- [Chorus: Mark Pearl - 2X]
- Darling let's let them sleep
- Come and lay next to me
- Before we set them free
- I wanna hear your heartbeat
