[Verse 1]

It grows from deep within you

Unbeknownst, crawling deeper and deeper

This disease burrows into you

Though it never shows until the day comes

When the man in white gives you his diagnosis

[Chorus]

Doomed to die

You thought you had time

How much longer will you need?

Doomed to die

When will you be the one?

You thought you had time

Accept that which you've become

How much, how much longer will you need?

[Bridge]

The tempo of time is ever flowing

And with every second, it ticks away

De-accelerating your cognition

When you know your time is nigh

The diagnosis

The tempo of time is ever flowing

And with every second, it ticks away

De-accelerating your cognition

When you know your time is nigh

The diagnosis

[Verse 2]

The pendulum is swinging, forever it shall ring

The grandfather clock will always sing again

[Verse 3]

The end of an era, the coming of age

For you, time does not wait

[Chorus]

Doomed to die

You thought you had time

How much longer will you need?

Doomed to die

When will you be the one?

You thought you had time

Accept that which you've become

How much, how much longer will you need?
