Time Bomb

(album: Cane Hill - 2015)

Woke up today, with the sun on my face
I tried to pray, but I hated the taste
Sped off to work like a rat in a race
Cut up a smile, but it's not on my face

Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick, Boom!

I'm a time bomb, just set me off!
My sanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Boom!
I'm a time bomb, ready to bleed!
Humanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Break!

I lace my teeth with gold they're rotting from the inside!

Bury me seven feet deep!
Closer to my misery
No air to breathe, no room to think!
(Why don't you) Bury me seven fucking feet deep?!

I think I'm okay
I think I'm okay
I think I'm okay
I think I'm okay
BUT DON'T YOU FUCKING TOUCH ME!

I think I'm okay
I think I'm okay
I won't be okay!

Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick, Boom!

I'm a time bomb, just set me off!
My sanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Boom!
I'm a time bomb, ready to bleed!
Humanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Break!

I'm not a martyr!
I'm just a fiend
So take a step back. Take a step back!
Can you see me smiling while I'm hiding in your back seat?

Bury me seven feet deep!
Closer to my misery
No air to breathe! No room to think!
(Why don't you) Bury me seven fucking feet deep?!

Maybe my day will come
Running waters never brought me to where I belong
And now I'm blind, god I'm so blind!
My suicide was labeled as a common dose of cyanide

Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick, Boom!

I'm a time bomb, just set me off!
My sanity is failing me. 5432 Boom!
I'm a time bomb, ready to bleed!
Humanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Break!

Bury me seven feet deep!
