Caution tape and stop signs
Can't slow us down now
The dog laps up your cold sweat
On a Saturday morning
That rainy Saturday morning
When you forgot to call
I've stayed in this room for so long
Probably because the couch is more comforting
Than your bed
The thunder is making the windows rattle
And my feet have gone numb
The coffee is lukewarm in it's ***
Yet nobody is home
And the clock's ticking is driving me mad
Tick.

Tick.

Tick.

Tock.
Jump back to another day
Another time
Another place
And we'd all be singing
But instead we wait
And wait
For something different to happen
Something magnificent
But you and I both know
I'ts too late
We're in a puddle
And I can't find the umbrella
Tick.

Tick.

Tick.

Tock.
