clocks tickin

Clocks ticking down I don't wanna go back
I just wanna live my life like the throwbacks
I don’t ever sleep and you already know that
It’s been several weeks and you still haven’t wrote back
I spent seventy just for you to go
Back and forth on the phone with somebody I don’t know
And you’re saying he’s the one who’s the reason that it broke
And my pockets had to fold to endorse you being bold now
We could build up a repertoire don’t know who you are
I pretended like I did but it left me with a scar
Second place first seat third base in the car
First date two weeks got a ticket where you are
Far away but we talk everyday and I stayed there
I still see your ghost at the door when I lay there
Patiently I struck up a chord with a nerve
And a hinting at a feeling that I’m not being absurd
I was tripping on my words kicking dirt out in the burbs
Mowing lawns saying words paying rent and skipping turns
You were sitting on the hurt I inflicted with a burn
You were putting all the pieces back together that’s for sure
I think I should get to think for myself I deserve that
I don’t really need nobody else unless they’re worth that
I should get to think for myself I deserve that
I don't really need nobody else unless they’re worth that
