Gilmour sings one stanza vigorously and the next one softly, capturing the song's two separate moods of angered frustration and relentless despair. The accompanying instruments maintain the song's concept with their rhythm and tone, and the ideas of the band (especially Waters) are understood effortlessly. The lyrics are unmitigated and obvious without metaphor or any drifting imagery. This solidified lyrical element is what makes "Time" such an influential song. The mood of "Time" is broody and dark, and the lyrics express the dismalness and anxiety that begins to surface when such a theme is dealt with. This gives "Time" its unique and unorthodox pace while at the same time isolates Mason and his prowess as a drummer. Throughout the song, Mason's drumming is faster and at the forefront of the rest of the instruments. Just after the chiming of the clocks, the dominant pounding of Nick Mason's roto-toms erupts crisply and heavily, leading into Gilmour's opening stanza. The conglomeration of clocks that strike and chime at the beginning of the song were recorded one by one by Alan Parsons from a clock shop, and then were combined to create the overlapping effect.
