Tick Tock

Says the droning bell

Time will stop

Without a sound

No one's safe

Until the end

But even still

The wounds won't mend

The brokenness

The loneliness

I'm reaching out

I'll always miss

Take us back

54321

The numbers pass

Will we ever be done?

Sacrifice

Is not the name

Of what you should do

To win this game

Get them out

I ask, "Can you?"

I ask, "This time?"

What if you lose?

Once again

You could mess up

Replay these things

And then trip up

Get them out

Take us back

We shout these things

With the will we lack

Never enter the mansion

Time will be replayed

We'll continue to die again and again

Trying to fix the choice we made
