Tick Tock
is it too much for you to bear?
always looking and finding me here
is there such a thing as too much love?
are you afraid it will swallow you up?
are you unsure? is it me or you?
do you need a dog like Blue for the clues?
did I not say it or lay it all on the line?
every single moment, every single time
did I give too much, or maybe, not enough?
when you spelled out no, were you calling my bluff?
the clock ticks slowly away all of our hours
all you could have had, you had all the power
