Alot To Learn

Watch the clock

And wonder who said that time flys by

Keep counting hours and minutes and seconds

In the same interval of time

If all you can do is waste away

In waiting for the hands to change

You might as well be alone in this room for good

So tick tock watch it mocking

You and every little move that you make

It says "don't you dare look away

Leaving will be your mistake"

Do you wanna step through that door

Of liars and cheats and scoundrels who

Will tear apart every piece of you

And chain your soul down with 'em too

Little girl you've got a lot to learn

Of how the world will treat your turn

If I were you I'd never speak

Never let it turn on me

You've got a mind and a mouth and a body attached

But let's be honest they're not matching up

You think of just how everything would be better

If you could just shut up

But the worlds not that forgiving

And if you keep on sitting

Patience runs thin like the wire you're on

So tick tock watch it mocking

You and every little move that you make

It says "don't you dare look away

Leaving will be your mistake"

do you wanna step through that door

Of liars and cheats and scoundrels who

Will tear apart every piece of you

And chain your soul down with 'em too

Little girl you've got a lot to learn

Of how the world will treat your turn

If I were you I'd never speak

Never let it turn on me

You can scrape at the walls

Claw through the floorboards break all the windows

Refuse and ignore

The answer in your hands

You can blame the world

For never letting you in

But it's you in the box

And the doors little lock

Has the key already in

So tick tock

Watch it mocking you and every little move that you make

It says "don't you dare look away"

But staying will be your mistake

Do you wanna step through that door

Of liars and cheats and scoundrels yes

But you've been avoiding all the best

And the sunsets are calling

There's a world you've left behind

But it's not something you cannot find again

Watch the clock, every second

Don't you dare lose the time

There's nothing better than now to be the most alive
