The pendulum swings Tick Tick From good to bad Tock Tock From love to hate Tick Tick From sad to mad Tock Tock I watch them take leave Tick Tick And new ones arrive Tock Tock Sometimes I question if I’m even alive Tick Tick But yet the pendulum swings Tock Tock Back and forth Tick Tick Forever

Grandfather Clock
The pendulum swings Tick Tick From good to bad Tock Tock From love to hate Tick Tick From sad to mad Tock Tock I watch them take leave Tick Tick And new ones arrive Tock Tock Sometimes I question if I’m even alive Tick Tick But yet the pendulum swings Tock Tock Back and forth Tick Tick Forever
It takes a lot out of me just to live recently. I'm so tired of my pendulum swinging. Enjoy. -T.S.
