Tick Tock

Tick Tock the clock keeps on ticking

I asked myself if it were to stop

Were it be at the hour of death

Or before I am put to sleep

So that when death comes

I would not hear it so.

Tick Tock the clock still at it

Does the Devil have one too

That marks his attendance in Hell

Or he ticks the clock to note the entrants

When we queue to his gate

To be consumed by his raging Hell.

Tick Tock the clock ceased

I felt myself lifted from my holds

Its not cold holdings I felt

But the secured warm hands of my guards

Fools they are to released me now

For its death I am awaiting to come.

Tick Tock my head struck left to right

The Governor sets me clear

Of the crime he said I did not do

But who will give me back my time

Of Tick Tock for twenty years .

You left me to rot in the clock of time.
