Tik tok
Goes the clock
With a very incessant tune

I've never liked
The sound of time
In the middle of an endless June

Tik tok
Goes the clock
Counting redundant numbers

It's a cycle
With no real meaning
That guides my wakes and slumbers

Tik tok
Goes the clock
Driving me up the wall

With its noise
In an otherwise quiet room
Ringing like a perpetual call

But for what?
I don't believe in the notion of forever
Nor in the illusion of time

Is that why the simple
Tik tok of a clock
Bothers me so much?

Tik tok
Goes the clock
Until the end of time

I wish I were
A believer in
Such obvious robbery of existence
