The Circle

Around the world in 60 ticks
Tick-tock, tick-tock
You only have one life to live
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Walking through the long dark hall
Tick-tock, tick-tock
A destination you don't know
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Papers due; Bells ringing
Tick-tock, tick-tock
The never ending circle singing
Don't stop. Don't stop.

Liar, liar tells the truth
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Time expires. Nothing new.
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Such little hands, so much to do
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Blink. It's gone, over, through
Tick-tock, tick-tock
The circle finished; so did you
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Eternity just ended.
Don't stop. Don't stop

.STOP.
