The World is a cold
Hard spinning globe
Indifferent to tears
If it would stop, just once
Then, I’d know it cares
Life must go on
Yes, but why it must
Dares no one say?
Or is Time to blame
For this Earth’s non-stop?
Time is harsh
The Watch constant reminds
Tick, tock, tock
When I’m happy, when I’m sad
Tick, tock, non-stop
Oh! If Night would once
But delay pomp
Of rising Sun
Then some comfort
I might have in gloom
