Tick Tock
Time is my enemy
Only because it goes so fast,
I set my clocks early because I know I’m always late
And time keeps moving
And I keep losing,
Allow me to digress..
Now I have to force my way back into the game
While my tongue is in intricate knots that a boy scout would walk away from,
And I can’t unravel them
And my eyes keep traveling,
And I can’t keep my gaze averted from temptation
For I seem to be so good at finding it,
I wear my heart on my sleeve
I rep it like a fabulous black eye to a permanent bruise,
And it seems to be my weakness
But also my witness,
I’m always going somewhere but never getting anywhere
Without the slightest clue that nowhere is the destination,
And I always get there just to see nothing
And I feel like I’m spinning and tilting though I’m standing on solid ground,
My curiosity gets to me
Though it won’t kill me the troublesome situations that come about might,
So don’t ever speak too soon and always anticipate chaos to arise in our paths
For we must always be the kids to make waves,
And even though you’re crashing it may not be so bad as long as the title fits
Though I’m looked over and passed through,
They never seem to notice that I’m a ticking time bomb with a taste for madness
And those who see me still don’t see me,
And they always bring me down to a stunning nothing
But I keep running and they keep gunning trying to beat the best,
But they don’t understand that their wasting their time because it’s a hopeless race
Case open and case shut,
The tragedy keeps thriving
And who could ever love the beast,
Come one,
Come all,
To witness the falling of a statue,
For that’s really what its all is about…
