Time Bomb

Twist the truth in what I say Tick ,tick it is a matter of time Hiding the truth With each movement tick ,tick Getting closer to the final countdown Tick ,tick the pressure It is building Getting closer to the truth tick, tick Saved by the bell I did not explode Biting my tongue words held at bay You would not like what I have to say It would strip you to the bare bone Your ugly lies When the ticking stops Nasty words, nasty deeds Will have nasty consequences I hold my tongue as its not me Your coloured coded lies they hurt deep Hacking away at my brain Your ugly words releasing the pressure The release of you So that I do not explode I never dropped the bombshell You did All the time I was sitting on a time bomb I sat and watched you Explode into lies Only now I found the truth
