Tick tock, tick tock,
Time goes on with the spinning clock,
Spinning limbs,
Evil wins,
Reversing needles and a fatal overdose,
Someone bring this act to a close,
Feel the heroin in his system,
See how much we have missed them,
Those track marks,
A broken heart,
A beat of a drum,
His heart beat is numb,
It was an accident, he swears,
Hallucinations scream NO ONE CARES,
Bloodshot eyes glance up,
Silent boy is out of luck,
Closed eyes, open eyes,
And all those images that he despised,
Well, he climbed on up to the roof,
To steal away his choking youth,
Bloodied wrists,
Bitten lips,
Stomach full of pills,
Lost all his will,
Vodka in hand,
No one else understands,
He steps straight off,
Another life has been lost.
