Ticking Clocks

[Verse]
It starts with a whisper then grows to a roar
Time’s slipping through cracks in the floor
Hold it tight but it burns your hand
Like trying to grab smoke or hold back sand

[Chorus]
Tick tock tick tock the clock won’t stop
Running through the hours til you hit the drop
One step one breath then it’s all a blur
The faster you run the less you’re sure

[Verse 2]
The hands move slow but the days race by
Chasing shadows under a painted sky
You blink and it's gone you turn and it's dust
Every moment a thief breaking your trust

[Bridge]
You can't rewind no pause no freeze
Time’s a ghost slipping through the trees
It laughs it taunts it always wins
The start and the end tied up in spins

[Chorus]
Tick tock tick tock the clock won’t stop
Running through the hours til you hit the drop
One step one breath then it’s all a blur
The faster you run the less you’re sure
