tick, tick

tock, tock

Place a hand on my neck,

Has my heartbeat stopped?


tick, tick

tock, tock

Turn on my phone,

Has someone found the key to my lock?


tick, tick

tock, tock

Evil thoughts,

'Mind' is a bully I should block.


tick, tick

tock, tock

Back off,

Makes me wish I was a kid kicking rocks.


tock, tock

tick, tick


End of the line,

Let me show you a trick:


tick, tick


tock, tock


closed eyes,


i still hear the clock
