Tickin’ On

A bullet
Hits home
Not my friend
My life goes tick
Tick
Tickin on
My life goes tick
Tick
Tickin on

Is that rain
No, it’s bullets
Not my people
My life goes tick
Tick
Tickin on
My life goes tick
Tick
Tickin on

Grenade!
silence –
not my house
my life goes tick
tick
tickin on
my life goes tick
tick
tickin on

bomb
shhh hush baby
not my town
my life goes tick
tick
tickin on
my life goes tick
tick
tickin on

missile

not my place
my life goes tick
tick
tickin on
my life goes tick
tick
tickin on

not yet
my life goes tick
tick
tickin on
my life goes tick
