The clock never stops ticking.
Seconds lead to minutes.
Minutes lead to hours.
Hours lead to days.
Days lead to weeks.
Weeks lead to months.
Months lead to years.
And the cycle never ends.
With every moment in time, I waste away my life.
School.
Homework.
Chores.
Family time that's been forced upon me.
I never have time to relax.
No time for friends.
No time for art.
No time for music.
No time for life.
Or sanity.
It all becomes too much and drives you to the edge.
One more responsibility.
One more task.
One more assignment.
One more moment of putting what makes me so unhappy before what I need to benefit myself.
One more.
That's it.
That's all it will take.
To drive me off the fucking edge.
~Ticking Time Bomb
