Tick Tock

Tick Tock

Goes the clock

What time is it?

I don't know

Last time I looked it was 2:01 in the morning

I'm just looking at one spot

Not looking at the clock

But I can hear it

Tick Tock

I'm looking at the door that leads to the lair

I'm watching it

Wish that it will open

It's like a life or death situation

If the door opens

It's life

If it remains closed

It's death

Tick Tock

It's mocking me

Just hear it

Tick Tock

Every time it moves

It's mocking me

Tick Tock

My eyes remain on the door

But my hearing remains on the clock

Tick Tock

It's like it is counting

Counting the seconds, minutes and the hours

That the door has remains shut

Tick Tock

My eyes are getting heavy

But I keep them open

Tick Tock

I finally take my eyes off the door

I look at the clock that is on the wall

I read the time in my head

3:30

I should really be in bed

Tick Tock

I turn my attention back to the door

It will open soon

Then we both can get the rest we need

Tick Tock

But I can't help it

I start to worry

I just keep saying one thing in my head

"Come home Raph"

Tick Tock
