it's finally raining hard
but i've lost my only playing card
in a room with no backyard
where the children once ran around
now they're gone without a sound
and there's no one left to see
just a shadow and fading memory
i look for you but there's only me
to unlock a door with a useless key
and the door is old and gray
so it doesn't matter anyway
there's lost love i can't repay
is there more that i could say?
i'm just a Jack inside his box
behind the walls of a paradox
with the ticking of the clocks
counting passing minutes of each day
is there more that i could say?
