Who says that we can't party all night?
and make memories we'll never forget
Who says I can't skip class for you my love?
and make your day with my smile and a strong gentle hug
Who says we can't have those late nights?
where we put off homework and stargaze on a hill just us two
Who says I can't take a day off work to pick her up?
when she is crying to her pillow
Who says I can't fall into her arms?
when I have no place left to fall
Who says I can't be careful of what I do and say?
because I don't want to ever want to cause her pain
Who says I can't take some time from life?
to write her little love notes and poems and hide them for her to find
Who says I can't say "I love you" to her in public?
because its a "too personal" thing for strangers
Who says I can't take those little moments lost in her kiss?
to mouth I love you Right onto her lips
Who says I can't brush the hair out of her eyes?
and brush a tear away and comfort her as she cries
Who says I can't love her with all my heart?
And call her as mine until death do us part
Who says I can't?
Who says?
Who, and why?

Hand in hand braced against the world
We take on each new day
"With you by my side I will never stray"
I hope that's true because
As long as your there wandering out with me
I'm too captivated by your boundless Beauty
That flows inside and out
How can I possibly look away
When I can barely believe I'm touching it

Tick. Tock.
The clock is breathing (but not for you...)
Tick. Talk.
Those markings we can't live without (not me...not you)
Tick. Tock.
It marks your spot in time (ha! your going to die! Stupid...)
Tick. Talk.
The clock mercilessly keeps going (it's not me who's going to burn. It's you! It's you!)
Tick. Tock.
It's face expressionless (it doesn't care...no one does)
Tick. Talk.
Climbing and falling around and back down (you can't stop it...not now, not ever!)
Tick. Tock.
And getting back up each morn and nightbreak (but, not this time...not for you)
Tick. Talk.
Time to get going (you won't come back)
Tick. Tock.
You will miss our date (your about to crack)
Tick. Talk.
You should really hurry (your no longer on your way)
Tick. Tock.
Your running out of time (your really running away)
Tick. Talk.
It's getting away (no...not really)
Tick. Tock.
She won't wait (your word must be kept)
Tick. Talk.
She's coming for you (to collect her payment)
Tick. Tock.
Run. Run RUN (theres no point)
Tick. Talk.
You can't escape (I already tried)
Tick. Tock.
She's right behind you (what a surprise)
Tick. Talk.
Your not going to make it (your about to die)
Tick. Tock.
Your frantic to escape (ha...don't bother)
Tick. Tock.
But you never can see her (I couldn't either)
Tick. Tock.
No matter which shoulder you look over (she's not chasing you)
Tick. Tock.
And through the back your run (it only seems that way)
Tick. Tock.
And before you hit the ground (don't get me wrong your dead)
Tick. Tock.
Your death as payment (you sold your soul...you were always hers to take)
Tick. Tock.
And crumple in a pool of your own lifeblood (Yep your really gone)
Tick. Tock.
The clock strikes the zero hour (your time had come)
Tick. Tock.
And keeps right on breathing (Cuz you? You were nothing...)
Tick Tock
Tick Talk
Tick Tock
(Just like me...)
