You're a ticking time bomb,
Don't you know?
tick
You have hurt
Too many people
Haven't you realised?
tick
Your words
Sting like bullets
And you keep them coming.
tick
You have caused
Great fear and annoyance
To us, your friends.
tick
You say you know
Your mistakes,
Oh you really do?
tick
You make me doubt you
Because you break trust
Over and over again.
tick
You think we avoid you
But there's a reason why.
You don't find out
And you don't ask why.
tick
You're maybe too smart
And that makes you proud
An air of arrogance lurks all around.
tick
"Oh don't tell me what to do,"
You say to us quite hurtingly.
Can I say this is too much pride?
tick
We're not against you
We're always for you
But we tell you to change,
And you know why?
tick
That's because we care
For you
But you don't see that.
tick
We want to help
You
Become a better person.
tick
You can tell us to go away
And let yourself rot
And go your own way.
tick
We give in too many times
Holding on to
Glimmers of hope.
tick
Hope
That you would change
But you didn't.
tick
Am I foolish
To still have that last hope
That you will change?
tick
tick
tick
EXPLODES
You leave us in the ruins
In the aftermath
Of your explosion.
You're a ticking time bomb,
Don't you know?
Don't you know?
