There is a clock in my house that is always ticking. Tick tok tick tok Sometimes, when I am all alone all I can hear is that clock tick tok tic tok hypnotizing me, transporting me to a place within my mind, a place that used to be beautiful and tragic, but now I can't tell which one anymore. tick tok tick tok I have began to count the ticks each one reminding me of the time I have wasted tick tok tick tok Each second, minute, hour of my life that I thrown away. tick tok tick tok I swear if this goes on any longer my heart will begin to beat in the metronomic rhythm tick tok tick tok Is no one else bothered that each tick represents one less second until death? tick tok tick tok Is this all just in my mind? Am I the only one who is going insane from the-- tick tok tick tok I can’t sleep, I can’t think, all I can hear is ticking tick tok tick tok Its like a time bomb in my head tick tok tick tok Waiting to explode tick tok tick toc Is it me or is the clock getting louder... tick tok tick tok THE **** CLOCK! tick tok tick tok IT WONT SHUT UP! tick tok tick tok TELLING ME THAT NOTHING LASTS tick tok tick tok REMINDING ME THAT TIME IS PASSING AND I CANT DO ANYTHING TO STOP IT! tick tok tick tok I pull out the batteries tick toc tick----

Tick Tok
There is a clock in my house that is always ticking. Tick tok tick tok Sometimes, when I am all alone all I can hear is that clock tick tok tic tok hypnotizing me, transporting me to a place within my mind, a place that used to be beautiful and tragic, but now I can't tell which one anymore. tick tok tick tok I have began to count the ticks each one reminding me of the time I have wasted tick tok tick tok Each second, minute, hour of my life that I thrown away. tick tok tick tok I swear if this goes on any longer my heart will begin to beat in the metronomic rhythm tick tok tick tok Is no one else bothered that each tick represents one less second until death? tick tok tick tok Is this all just in my mind? Am I the only one who is going insane from the-- tick tok tick tok I can’t sleep, I can’t think, all I can hear is ticking tick tok tick tok Its like a time bomb in my head tick tok tick tok Waiting to explode tick tok tick toc Is it me or is the clock getting louder... tick tok tick tok THE **** CLOCK! tick tok tick tok IT WONT SHUT UP! tick tok tick tok TELLING ME THAT NOTHING LASTS tick tok tick tok REMINDING ME THAT TIME IS PASSING AND I CANT DO ANYTHING TO STOP IT! tick tok tick tok I pull out the batteries tick toc tick----
So, ticking clocks seem to drive me insane...
