Time

By Billie Daddario

Time is a ticking

In the corner of your mind.

It’s the ticking that tells you you’re too young.

Time is a ticking

In the corner of the room

It’s the ticking that tells you they’re too young to be going

Time is a ticking

In the corner of the room

It’s the ticking that begs you not to look in the mirror

Time is a ticking

In the corner of the mind ,

It’s a ticking that tells you that times slipped away.
