Let's say I'm feeling better
Let's say I'm feeling fine
Let's say I gave you all I had
And now I'm out of time
And my best wasn't good enough
And now this time to wonder
Now this time to heal
Time to let it all come down
But I don't know what I feel
But it aches and it hurts and it burns
Oh it kills me
Tick, tock, you don't stop
You don't fade
You just stay
But I'll do it all again
Now don't you call me baby
Just don't pretend you care
Save your sorry for yourself
When Judas takes you there, yes
Once I really believed
There was nothing out there for the lost and lonely
But a voice in my head kept banging on my heart
Says you're not the only one
But it kills me
Tick, tock, you don't stop
You don't fade
You just stay
But I'll do it all again
Tick, tock, you don't stop
You don't fade
You just stay
But I'll do it all again
