Hands Like Houses - Watchmaker [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Hook 1]
Watchmaker, teach me the ways
I want to learn the secrets and the sciences of seconds
Watchmaker, teach me the ways
The methods to dull my ears to the sound

[Verse 1: Matty Mullins]
Teach me how to rewind, rewind, so I can relive
Every second, minute - all I missed, oh
I'm always focused on the next thing
If only I could pause and re-
Teach me how

[Pre-Chorus 1]
If I were a watchmaker
I'd build suspension into the springs
Hidden gears, secret faces
Undiscovered hours to keep you in
These hours to keep you in

[Pre-Chorus 2]
There'll be no back, there'll be no forth
Just us, where we are

[Hook 2]
Watchmaker, teach me the workings
I want to learn the secrets and sciences of seconds
Teach me the seasons, the measure of these machines

[Verse 2]
I'm haunted by mechanical sounds
Damped, stolen, and swallowed, relentless, counting down
In the bellies of old enemies
I'm plagued by the "tick tock - tick tock"
But with vehemence I'll take to their faces and tear them away
There's tension in me
I'm wound up and bound to an endless release
A robin imprisoned in a carved clock
I'm a tune locked in a music box
To a grave melody
I can feel a nervousness in my fingers
To spindles, they're wasting away
And with every twitch, they're turning
Passing by with my meaningless revolutions

[Hook 2]

[Verse 3]
I gazed too deep, I leaned in too close
Caught by the collar and dragged into a two-four waltz
Drawn into steps unfamiliar to me
I was passed like partners between turning teeth

[Hook 2]
