Tick tock goes the clock
As life passes you by

Tick tock goes the clock
as we struggle to see eye to eye

Tick tock goes the clock
as the pain begins to fade

Tick tock goes the clock
as you hope someone renders aid

Tick tock goes the clock
as the mistakes begin to build

Tick tock goes the clock
as water your lungs are filled

Tick tock goes the clock
as you slowly close your eyes

Tick tock...
goes the clock...
Are you prepared to die...
