Watching the time bomb ticking away

Watching the time bomb nobody cares

Till it's too late

Watching the time bomb ticking away

Watching the time bomb you better pray

You're somewhere safe

We're transfixed on a pendulum sky

Watch another tank of gasoline run dry

A death stare from a cold dead eye

As you're chopping up the carrot

Sharpening their knives

Don't blink keep your eyes on the prize

While you rip me up to pieces

Cut me down to size

Don't dare try to keep it inside

Cause the only way to make us laugh

Is to make us cry

Just when you thought you've seen it all

A storm awaits behind the door

Disgruntled right down to the core

We still go on

Watching the time bomb ticking away

Watching the time bomb nobody cares

Till it's too late

Watching the time bomb ticking away

Watching the time bomb you better

Pray you're somewhere safe

Beat up put the slate to the grind

Another rocket launcher going off inside my mind

Tight cuffs only hold me tight

Every thought about the future leaves me terrified

I'm sick of the same old lies

Why don't you talk about your feelings

Who gives a shit about mine

Death grips got a hold of my side

Because the only way to make us laugh

Is to make us cry

Just when you thought you've seen it all

A storm awaits behind the door

Disgruntled right down to the core

We still go on

Watching the time bomb ticking away

Watching the time bomb nobody cares

Till it's too late

Watching the time bomb ticking away

Watching the time bomb you better

Pray you're somewhere safe

Oh we got a time bomb ticking away inside

And the only way to make us laugh

Is to make us cry

Watching the time bomb ticking away

Watching the time bomb ticking away

Watching the time bomb ticking away

You're watching the time bomb ticking away inside

And the only way to make us laugh is to make us cry

You're watching the time bomb ticking away inside

Everybody needs a little help when the world is blind

You're watching the time bomb ticking away inside

And the only way to make us laugh is to make us cry

You're watching the time bomb ticking away

You're watching the time bomb ticking away

You're watching the time bomb ticking away

You're watching the time bomb ticking away

Our world's got no liberty

Locked up in a little cage

This world is a bitter place

Our world's got no liberty

Locked up in a little cage

This world is a bitter place
