Lyric

Scratched face, Cartier shine

Silver marks on perfect time

You sit there, looking composed

Like nothing here has ever broke

I turn my wrist, you stare back

Little crack along the track

You keep pretending you're fine

But the second hand's telling lies

You count it out so clean

Like time could stay pristine

But I know what it means

When patience starts to lean

The Tank Watch lies

The Tank Watch lies

It says I'm on time

But you're already mine

The Tank Watch lies

The Tank Watch lies

Desire came late

And still crossed that line

I wore control like gold

Pressed flat, cold, and slow

Kept my name inside my mouth

Kept my wants from shaking out

Then you moved through the room

And that careful seal came loose

One glance, and it was done

Order bent, then came undone

You count it out so clean

Like time could stay pristine

But I know what it means

When patience starts to lean

The Tank Watch lies

The Tank Watch lies

It says I'm on time

But you're already mine

The Tank Watch lies

The Tank Watch lies

Desire came late

And still crossed that line

A hairline crack in the glass

That's all it took to pass

Now every clean, exact little part

Keeps giving up my heart

I held it tight, I did

Till the lock began to slip

Now even my best restraint

Turns thin under your name

The Tank Watch lies

The Tank Watch lies

It says I'm on time

But you're already mine

The Tank Watch lies

The Tank Watch lies

Desire came late

And still crossed that line
