Time-Bomb Ticking Away - Billy Talent

Watching a time-bomb ticking away

Watching a time-bomb, nobody cares 'til it’s too late

Watching a time-bomb ticking away

Watching a time-bomb, you better pray you’re somewhere safe

Transfixed on a piss-yellow sky

Watch another tank of gasoline burn dry

Death stare from her cold dead eyes

As she’s chopping up the carrots, sharpening the knives

Don’t blink, keep your eyes on the prize

While you rip me into pieces, cut me down to size

Don’t dare try to keep it inside

'Cause the only way to make us laugh is to make us cry!

Just when you thought you’d seen it all

A storm awaits behind the door

Disgruntled right down to the core

We still go on

Watching a time-bomb ticking away

Watching a time-bomb, nobody cares till it’s too late

Watching a time-bomb ticking away

Watching a time-bomb, you better pray you’re somewhere safe

Beat down like a slave to the grind

I got a rocket launcher going off inside my mind

Dark clouds bottled up inside

Every thought about the future leaves me terrified

I’m sick of the same old lines

Why don’t you talk about your feelings?

Who gives a shit about mine?

Death grips cut a thorn in my side

'Cause the only way to make us laugh is to make us cry!

Just when you thought you’d seen it all

A storm awaits behind the door

Disgruntled right down to the core

We still go on

Watching a time-bomb ticking away

Watching a time-bomb, nobody cares till it’s too late

Watching a time-bomb ticking away

Watching a time-bomb, you better pray you’re somewhere safe

Oh, we got a time-bomb ticking away inside

And the only way to make us laugh is to make us cry

Watching a time-bomb ticking away

Watching a time-bomb ticking away

Watching a time-bomb ticking away

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away inside

And the only way to make us laugh is to make us cry

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away inside

All they ever need’s a little help but the world is blind

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away inside

And the only way to make us laugh is to make us cry

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away (I won’t spend another day)

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away (Locked up in a metal cage)

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away (This world is a better place)

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away (I won’t spend another day)

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away (Locked up in a metal cage)

You’re watching a time-bomb ticking away (This world is a better place)
