Hands of Time
Lyrics
Watch the hands of time,
They're turning so fast.
Feel the days pass by,
As if they'll never last.
Looking back through time,
I wonder where it had all gone.
Feeling like I used to?
A thing of the past, so let's move on.
Spin the hands of time,
Until you reach the end.
Seeing days pass by,
Thinking I can't go on.
Looking back through time,
I wonder what I could have done.
Feeling the way I'm used to,
Will never come back, so let's move on.

Computed notes
From Vision, instrumental. Less aggressive than most of her work, with the relaxed lean unusually high; mood-themes lean dark and spacious. Synth, sampler, bass, piano, and keyboard. Closer to introspective trance than party-floor.
