The clock is on the wall,

It only goes fast when you look away,

60 seconds to make something good happen,

Feels like a day.

60 seconds to hear bad news, 

Feels like an eternity.

60 seconds to drift off,

Feels like 5,000.

60 seconds to cry,

But wipe your tears,

They are counting.

Counting us.

Watching us.

Are we here?

Were we enough?

Did life go by fast?

Or did YOU lose count?

60 seconds to live in it,

And you're already out.

Out,

Out of time.

You wasted your chance,

It's away forever,

Was that what you thought?

That we were in this together? 

Time ends quickly,

As fast as it begins.

Your chances are draining,

Fizzing away.

You sit there and pray,

Will you live another day?

A day of 1400 minutes,

But you're stuck at the first.

60 seconds to open the blinds,

And you keep them shut.

Close your eyes,

Go back to bed.

When you wake up again,

You'll feel it in your head.  

60 seconds to restart,

But you're already dead.
