Tick Tock
The time is flying
Tick Tock
It's not stopping
Tick Tock
It keeps moving
Tick Tock
Why are you fighting

Tick Tock Tick Tock
What are you holding onto
Tick Tock Tick Tock
Why aren't you letting go
Tick Tock Tick Tock
Come on and just give in
Tick Tock Tick Tock
Time is gonna catch up

Tick Tock Tick
Is it really worth it
Tick Tock tick
You can't be loved
Tick Tock Tick
It won't hurt them
Tick Tock Tick
JUST GIVE UP

--------------­-
Whenever I start spiraling in my head i listen to a watch i have and the sound calms me down.
Makayla Jane Mar 2019
I've been up since Monday,
Not an ounce of sleep
I feel so dead inside
But that ain't stopping me -
From smiling on the outside

Because a song I listened to last night,
That provoked certain thoughts and urges,
Said that it doesn't matter what's on the inside;
That you need to shove it deep down inside and just smile
Because only what's on the surface matters

So that's what I've been doing so far -
In the 2 hours I've been in public and around my best friend
I've smiled and threw jokes out
Laughing perfected fake laughs
Pretending that I'm sleeping while the world was dreaming
That I was having a happy dream in a cozy slumber

I pretend I wasn't crying all night long, alone
As I convinced myself that my best friend didn't need me;
When I get in those episodes where the need to die is so strong,
I can never really imagine a scenario where she cares or wants me around

But there's one scenario - one moment where she vaguely does
And it's when I see myself in my casket being lowered into my grave
I can see her sad and crying sometimes depending on the night
But others she just stares, remotely sad

Though, what do I care?
I'm dead and free
True story that's based on only facts hah.
Feel free to share revision ideas (:

i've been walking around to find my self

i've been thinkin about to play it safe

all this time i didn't know that i was lost

all this time i didn't know that im a ghost




here but not here

im running away from my fears

is this what it feels like ?

growin up not knowing what to do





and every step i take, im always scared

but i convinced my self, dont be afraid

hey! am i a nice person? they said almost!

turned out i  have became someone i hate the most




and i wish i could say, that im so done with life

someone out there please help me to understand

there are some days where i want to grab a knife

because sometimes my life, driving me mad
this is a song that i wrote after i just got out from the shower this afternoon.

— The End —
