[Verse 1]
He was an anxious boy, a roving wandering thing
A drifter alone in the void
Each day goes racing by, the moment turning to stone
Just watching the time go
The hours just ticking away

[Verse 2]
Now he’s an ardent man, a fervent scrambling thing
Still stumbling alone in the void
Hardened and ossified, he’s slowly turning to stone
How quickly the time goes
The hours just slipping away
