Bitter Ruin - Ticker Don't Tock
I don't think I can fly
But i but I believe in you
I don't spend what I lack
But i but I believe
that you're coming back
Oh ink your map
Ink your map
I don't think I will break
But I can feel a malfunction
Oh take my pound
No need for flesh
to hold a hollow mould
When everybody says
it should be beating
like a drum well
My ticker ain't tocking ooh ooh
I can't believe you're walking ooh ooh
It don't sing
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
No beating no
I'm eating leaner cuts
and meeting up with peers
from the years gone by
To try'n' find
Love love love
Oh lace up your shoes
Messenger of many miles to walk
before my brain accepts the news
But I've discovered my ears
And what they really like to do
is hear a friendly voice
No need for
Drums that have a beating past
And suddenly the pulse is lost
and stillness comes at zero cost and
My ticker ain't tocking ooh ooh
I can't believe you're walking ooh ooh
Oh come- by boy come- by boy
You have been out 'thinking'
For too long boy too long boy
You must be cold
Oh come by boy come by boy
You have been out 'thinking'
For too long boy too long boy
You must be cold
Oh won't you come home
My ticker ain't tocking ooh ooh
I can't believe you're walking ooh ooh
