I’ve had this watch for fifteen long years
A silent victim of broken gears
I never dreamed it’d turn out this way
I saw my life through a broken glass
Through this wall, I will sing
And through this life, I will rise
In my own way
Liberation comes to the one
Who learns to love, not regret what’s done
So let yourself be carried away
Let tomorrow become today
Through this wall, I will sing
And through this life, I will rise
In my own way
And every day I’ll do what I feel
Every day I’ll feel what to do
Sing some songs, invest myself in you
And every day I’ll do what I know
Every day I’ll know what to do
Song some songs invest myself in you babe
I’ve had this watch for fifteen long years
Now a victim of broken gears
I never dreamed it’d turn out this way
I saw my life through a broken glass
