White Widows Pact The Watch lyrics

loveless and precise
it disciplines me
into small panics
of survival instinct
from another failure
and a withering day
relentless, ruthless
methodical and cold
relentless, ruthless
rigorous
methodical and cold
watch the second hand
sweep past it's marks
pompous and total
with regard for no one
forcing me to
put on a face

for the world
of controlled desperation
while living in a private hell
that you will never see
walking blindly on a paithed road
to a place I'll never reach
imprisoned by obsession
and the articles of speech
shackled to tradition
bounded by routine
a controlled desperation
I'll never leave
my private hell
