In shadows deep where no light dares to creep,
The Clockwork God its vigil keeps.
Gears of bone grind flesh and dreams,
Time's maw opens wide and screams.
Tick tock, the hours bleed,
On time's altar, we're decreed.
Eternity's jaws, ever unfurled,
Consuming all, our mortal world.
Moments slip like sand through glass,
Future crumbles into past.
In time's maze, we're trapped and lost,
Our lives the inevitable cost.
Tick tock, the hours bleed,
On time's altar, we're decreed.
Eternity's jaws, ever unfurled,
Consuming all, our mortal world.
Eons stretch, a cosmic blight,
Stars die in endless night.
We're but motes in time's dark eye,
Our existence, a fleeting lie.
The Chronophage stalks its prey,
Devouring seconds, night and day.
In its belly, ages churn,
All we know and love, unlearn.
Tick tock, our souls now bleed,
To time's hunger, we concede.
In eternity's maw, we're swirled,
Our essence from existence hurled.
The clock strikes thirteen, silence falls,
Time consumes these mortal halls.
In the void where eons sleep,
The Clockwork God its harvest reaps.
