Tick-tock, the pendulum sways Questions run circles in infinite ways A thought's a spark, a fleeting haze Plans dissolve in temporal plays Mirror on mirror, reflect the riddle Life's no straight line, more like a fiddle Bow to the strings, chaos in tune Dance through the dusk, howl at the Moon Who writes the script, the stars or the clay? Is the ink of tomorrow spilling today? Time's a trickster, loves to misbehave Dig your own path or ride the wave Step to the left, pause in the right Philosophy's rhythm, a pulse in the night Waltz in the whirlpool, spin till it stings The meaning's the melody, not what it brings A circle's not closed if the dots don't meet Plans scatter like sand beneath bare feet A question's an answer in mystery's guise The truth is a shadow in the sunlit skies Thread by thread, the fabric unwinds Echoes of reason in labyrinth minds No start, no end, just loops that persist Life's an unsolved paradox we can't resist Shuffle and pivot, where's the floor? The deeper you dig, the less you're sure A laugh, a tear, a step out of sync The rhythm of being's too fast to think Step to the left, pause in the right Philosophy's rhythm, a pulse in the night Waltz in the whirlpool, spin till it stings The meaning's the melody, not what it brings Tick-tock, pendulum sways The dance never ends, it just replays
