Black As Time - Candlemass

Time is short… time is endless

Time is linear but also a relative factor that

Moves rather unnoticed form point A to B

Time is a force not to be taken lightly…

Because time never forgets

Time heals nothing…

Time is a black hole that consumes energy

Ambition and love…

Time is dangerous!

Time… quite frankly… doesn’t give a shit!

And above all… time is BLACK

It is your ENEMY!

Time is decline and decay… time is DEATH!

It follow you everywhere you go until it inexorably

Leaves you behind

Time counts your every step… every year, month

Week and minute… tick tock tick tock…

And when the reaper breathes you in the neck…

It is there… stealing the very limited precious

Shares of TIME that are left…

Slowly and almost unnoticed… second by second…

Tick tock tick tock

Tick tock… it continues the countdown closer to

Your grave… until it finally STOPS!

TIME IS BLACK!

She’s the truth, o hail the Queen

The universal binding seem

Life and death, every second

Kneel, thy majesty is present

Time will lead me to my grave

It never sleep… never saves

The queen of time rules, will see us fall

TIME IS BLACK… BLACK AS THE SUN

TIME IS BLACK… BLACK AS WINE

BLACK AS TIME

BLACK AS TIME
