Looking at me with that needle

(“needle…needle…”)

Ending my time with each tick

(Tick-tick)

Vexing sound I cannot handle

Eating my time it makes me sick.

Mourning the seconds that slipped

Ending my time in a blink

All of the years fade in silence

Lingering memories sink

Oh time, you win that’s for sure

Nothing changes if I stay unsure.

Every breath just fades away…

[Echo trail] (“Away-ay-ay…”)

(tick… tick…)

Still I chase another minute,

But the hour never stays....

(tick… tick…)
