Tempus - The Thief

Time, is the ultimate thief...

        It creeps, unnoticed
Taking
Stealing
Passing before our eyes
Infiltrating purpose
Ambushing ambition
Tick, Tick, Tick
It winds the world
Turns night to day
A burglar without conviction
In the Dock to never stand
Tock, Tock, Tock
The Faceless Bandit
Shadowless Villain
Has slain yesterday
Will defeat tomorrow
Taking from us
What is now
What is us
A shifting constant
It doesn't hide
Has no conscience
Everything applies
This ageless Anti - Hero
Time, is his name
Will take what we hold sacred
No Justice for his Crimes

Time it takes away as it gives.
A thief in the night, detracting hours off every day.
