First Verse
I need to keep you around
With my feet tied
With my feet tied tight to the ground
The end's nowhere to be found
I don’t know why
You don’t leave me to drown oh-oh-oh
Second Verse
Don’t know where to go unless you say
Don’t know what to do unless you stay
Thinking that today will be our day
Will be our day again
Chorus
Why am I playing with time as it’s ticking away?
It's tickin’ away, away, I’m askin’
Why, we run for our lives, not a second to waste?
You're tickin’ away, away, away
Third Verse
Alright, let's get it
Winnin'
Losin'
Either way I'm there
Gotta attitude
I'm out the roof
Up in the air
This round I make it count
Yeah I'm talkin’ right now
Feel like the comeback kid
I got no time to spare
Woah
Double up the score
Turn a 2 to a 4
You know I win a lot
Gotta win one more
On a hot streak
Never gets old
Solo with the ace
And my team went gold
Chorus
Why am I playing with time as it’s ticking away?
It's tickin’ away, away, I’m askin’
Why, we run for our lives, not a second to waste?
You're tickin’ away, away, away
You're tickin’ away, away
Fouth Verse
I’ll give it one more try
I don’t know why
But I keep comin’ back every time
I want it more than my life
I don’t know why
But it feels so right
Chorus
Why am I playing with time as it’s ticking away?
It's tickin’ away, away, I’m askin’
Why, we run for our lives, not a second to waste?
It's tickin’ away, away, away
It's tickin’ away, away, away
Tickin’ away, away, away...
