Tickity tock
Sitting here watching the news
What is going on gives me the blues
The world is fighting a war
Just wanting to take a lil more
Who is wrong and who is right
In this mad blight
All stays the same
Those remaining silent are just as much to blame
Seems they think it is all a game
Death falling from above
What ever happened to love
Mother grab your child
Welcome to a world that has gone wild
Lost, are the meek and mild
What is truth but a lie
Words falling from the sky
Blinded by the rockets that fly by night
Hold your children tight
Going to be rough
So you gotta be tough
As the night turns to day
Seems the world has lost its way
Tear drops fall
The world builds a wall
Humanity starts to stall
A world so dark
So stark
No hope beyond tomorrow
..... this sorrow.....
Tick..ity tock
Winds down the clock
