[Verse 1]
You think you're safe
When you're living in your simple fishbowl life
But I'm closer
I am closer than you think

I, the keeper of your time
Or what's left of it...
I've counted your every second
Since you first entered this world

[Pre-Chorus]
I like to sit beside you (Sit beside you)
(And) Listen to your heart and thoughts (Heart and thoughts)
You always think so much
Yet you do so very little (You do nothing, you do nothing)

[Chorus]
You believe you are the one that I have forgotten
I have not
I know you, and I will never leave you
Why do you always wait
Until it's too late? (Too late)
You want to know why I'm here
And where I'm taking you... (My own death)
[Verse 2]
I observe how well you spend
Your limited seconds of life
And I'm afraid to say that
You don't really use them well

[Pre-Chorus]
You misuse loved ones (Misuse loved ones)
But once you stop breathing (Stop breathing)
You all go back to the same thought (And it makes you heavy)
And it makes you heavy to carry (To carry)

[Chorus]
You believe you are the one that I have forgotten
I have not
I know you, and I will never leave you
Why do you always wait
Until it's too late? (Too late)
You want to know why I'm here
And where I'm taking you... (My own death)

[Bridge]
My own death
"I hope they know
How much I cared about them"
It's my own death
"How much I cared
In the court of my heart"
My own death
And you dare to say
That I'm the mystical one?
It's my own death
When it's you that always
Wait until it's too late...
[Solo]

[Chorus]
You believe you are the one that I have forgotten
I have not
I know you, and I will never leave you
Why do you always wait
Until it's too late? (Too late)
You want to know why I'm here
And where I'm taking you... (My own death)

[Outro]
You think you are safe
But I'm closer than you think
You think you are safe
In your "own" life...
