Time ticking on the wall
It enters my thoughts, consumes them all
Envelops me, body and soul
It simply devours me whole
Why do I care? Why am I concerned?
I wish I had never learned
Then I wouldn’t know what the ticking meant
And to my mind it wouldn’t make the slightest dent
I need to tear it down, that petrifying sound
Break free and live my life unbound
So here I go and down it crashes
To me all time turns to ashes
I am free - free to soar
Inside I hear time’s distant roar
