tick tock by omegapaf i suddenly got scared time is a beggars banquet, not to be shared my volatile fall from grace shows in every line on my face emotional shrapnel, wounded me deep i just wanted to be asleep being hoisted by my own petard left me on my guard feeling like an off key canary made me a little wary but now i am beginning to trust and no! it's not just lust this woman really has something to say pity she lives so far away a timorous emotional bridgehead halted the decay pursuading me to stay all roads may lead to rome but this road is putting a nifty gleam on my soul maybe we can all make it home and at last, finally be whole.
