Clockwork

 

It moves in slowly

Tick-tock

 

Never ending circle

Tick-tock

Truth beware

Tick-tock, tick tock

 

It lurks in shadows

Tick-tock

Moving on

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

Passerby angels

Tick-tock

Hesitant wait

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

The light beckons

Tick-tock

Hidden beyond time

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

It calls, whispers in the wind

Tick-tock

Life drags on

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

Turning tide

Tick-tock

Dreary days forevermore

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

Simple mind tricks

Tick-tock

That’s what they tell you

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

Demons knock

Tick-tock

Just give in

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

Depression plunges

Tick-tock

You almost let up

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

Psychiatric labels

Tick-tock

I’m not schizo

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

You can’t ignore it

Tick-tock

Fallen angels await your descent

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

Heavy hearts collide

Tick-tock

You can’t turn back the hands of time

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

Tragic remedies

Tick-tock

Mild interruptions

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

It gets worse

Tick-tock

Stop asking for sympathy

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

No matter the circumstances

Tick-tock

It hurts nonetheless

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

You can’t quit now

Tick-tock

They need you

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

Reminders of hell

Tick-tock

They keep me safe

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

A looming grave

Tick-tock

Hidden from sight

Tick-tock, tick-tock

 

Never ending clockwork

Tick-Tock.
