Time Waits for No Man
Lyrics
Spin on, stars, and dance your passing pirouettes
Spring, sweet Selene, we praise your phases met
Stay, stark Sun, and still your standing silhouettes
Join your kin, the signs that wax and wane and set
See below, the globe that holds our lives and loves
Roots of stone and iron, but fragile as a dove
The glowing ark we owe our journeys through the rough
A million miles an hour, but only from above
And though the ages go
From where you stare an eon is a
Day, to us below
Eternity's a life to make, 'cause
Time waits for no man
It rusts and it consumes
Expresses all the entropy that grows, and so we
Fight, fight while we can
Resist the rising dark
Soon all things will fall
And all we made will fade to Time
Time waits for no man
Time waits for no man
Go, far globes, your whirling twirls above our heads
Hold your glow within that darkened firmament
A million trillion miles your lonely show has sped
And, spied by eyes, a light that long ago had fled
And though our sight is slow
You guide us through the darkening to the
Day, you stand aglow
Eternity is just a wake, 'cause
Time waits for no man
It rusts and it consumes
Expresses all the entropy that grows, and so we
Fight, fight while we can
Resist the rising dark
Soon all things will fall
And all we made will fade to Time
And though the seconds go
In glass they pass through every single
Day, one thing I know
Tomorrow's coming just the same, cause
Time waits for no man
It rusts and it consumes
Expresses all the entropy that grows, and so we
Fight, fight while we can
Resist the rising dark
Soon all things will fall
And will fail
Time waits for no man
It rushes ever on
The stars one day will fall
Though, with our precious life we
Climb, climb as we may
And shine our light today
We light the world
And stay the stars
Before we pass through Time
