The Clock Is Ticking ⏰️

The clock is ticking
Time it marches boldy on
The clock is ticking
One day your life will be gone
You are a prisoner of your mind 
Don't really exist you will find
The clock is ticking

The clock is ticking
Seconds are a blur minutes race
Hours vanish days lost without trace
The clock is ticking
Months turn into years a mystery
One last breath and you are history
The clock is ticking

The clock is ticking 
The road to salvation you travel
Your destiny it will soon unravel
The clock is ticking
Faces and memories a blur you find 
Give and you shall receive be kind
The clock is ticking

The clock is ticking
Love hate hopes and fears
Pain blood sweat and tears
Reflection as the end it nears
The clock is ticking
