At any time the clock of destiny calls
A haunting sound that finds our soul
Yet daily we dance with time, even as fate’s curtain falls
And we never get to fulfil our dreams
So many moments lost, forever gone
Oh what could have been and
In our silences do we ponder what went wrong
As the clock of destiny weaves its own tale
The hands of the clock are relentless and cruel
Counting the seconds, the minutes, the years
While we chase elusive dreams, a pointless duel
As the clock of destiny always brings tears
So many dreams left behind, paths untaken
With every passing hour hearts mourn
As we remember choices that were forsaken
And we know the clock of destiny will one day ring
Times relentless march can take us on an unknown road
Guiding us to love, to joy, to pain, to suffering
Often, we end up carrying a heavy load
And do we wish the clock of destiny would ring
In the symphony of life, time has a somber chime
It holds our secrets, it hears our silent tears
And as we wrestle with life’s endless climb
We know in our souls the clock of destiny will one day call us all.
