Time Bomb

Starting now I'm starting over
I'm gonna sleep with the next person I meet
Starting now I'm starting over
You swore "together forever"
How your tan lines tell me your words become no concept of
Time
Tic tac, you're not a clock, you're a time bomb baby, a time
Bomb
Oh no, was it worth what you did to your wrists?
Was it worth what you did to big business?
Was it worth what your friends put up their noses?
Starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
Tell the new wave kids their make-up kits
Can find me where self pity gets a breath of fresh air
Five years and you fell for a waiter
I'm sure he says he's an actor
So you're acting like....
You never tried to take your life
Starting now I'm starting over
I'm throwing bottles
I'm taking showers
I'm going to sleep
(Just sleep?)
I'm going to sleep
Starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
Starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
To play the game, get even, act my age
Tic tac, you're not a clock, you're a time bomb baby, a time
Bomb oh no
You set the watch, you're just in time
To wreck my life, to bring back what id left behind
Oh no, was it worth what you did to your wrists?
