Eve of year 2000 TicToc
TicToc TicToc
The doomsday clock
TicToc TicToc
Heard all the squawk
TicToc TicToc
The world’s gone amuck
TicToc TicToc
Expecting a deadlock
TicToc TicToc
Life won’t be a catwalk
TicToc TicToc
Two minutes to midnight TicToc
TicToc TicToc
Hold your breath TicToc
TicToc TicToc
One minute to midnight TicToc
TicToc TicToc
Hold your breath TicToc
TicToc TicToc
Eyes unlock
TicToc TicToc
Taking stock
TicToc TicToc
The earth still just a rock
TicToc TicToc
T’was all a crock

A steady soul saves a drowning friend
Sure and pure , with no asking she sends
Beginning was born , we don't want to see the end
A warm hand covers veins that are frozen
Lovers lovers , your hearts will be broken
Destiny was born , these things are never chosen
An angel's face smiles in this darkness
Embraces grace , she once enjoyed harshness
Until you were born , with dangerous kindness
A living breath spreads life into bones
Health or death !? TicToc .. Find your home
Goodbyes were born , there's nothing you'll ever own
Dreamy eyes , close them then step away
Hide your lies , so that truth can finally stay
When I was born , was it just an ordinary day !?
