Tic – toc
Tic – toc
Tic – toc
The wood creaks above, someone comes down the stairs, you look,
and there is no one.
Tic – toc
Life is what happens while you are counting your seconds.
Tic – toc
Tic -toc
You blink, the alarm clock goes off
You blink again, you are sitting at your desk,
blink, in your car,
on your couch,
laughter from the tape,
alarm clock, desk, car, couch
alarm, desk, car, couch
desk, couch,
couch
tic – toc
tic – toc
a silent scream,
you take the battery out.
