Ticking The clock it keeps on ticking
Ticking in my mind
What does this ticking mean?
My mind appears so blind
As the ticking carries on
I start to think of what I did wrong
I hurt someone that was close to me
So much that they hated me
I never seem to do anything right
Maybe I should give up the fight
Maybe I should go away
Out of this country and far away
I'll never return to this great land
Never touch it with my hand
I'll never see the sweet, sweet face
Of the ones that brought me to this place
But still the ticking carries on
Reminding me of what I did wrong
If I ever see you again
I'll mention the ticking in my head
