Time
Tick tock, tick tock
Time is all that's left
Tick tock, tick tock
Start counting down the days
Of course what is there to count when you're just a truck
Tires rolling down the same pavement everyday
Music hanging in the echoes outside
Life to you is just a ride
Tick tock, tick tock
Imagine a man driving
He's on his way to pick his three children up while downing a bottle
He swerves into different lanes not noticing
After the kids are with him they buckle up and stay quiet
They've seen this episode before
It's just a repeat of last week
They don't dare say a word when the speed increases to 64 in a 25 speed area
Tick tock, tick tock
The oldest often wonders how long this will continue for
How long until someone gets hurt
Tick tock, tick tock
Then it happens
A drop off the stereo remote
The man reaches for it sending the truck up a hill
Screams are heard
A pole not 12 feet away
The wheel was pushed
The truck jerked back to the road
Tears ran down the eldests' face when her father screamed at her
Tick tock, tick tock
This was only an episode on replay
A new one will be aired next week
