[Verse 1]

Woke up today, with the sun on my face

I tried to pray, but I hated the taste

Sped off to work like a rat in a race

Cut up a smile, but it's not on my face

Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick, Boom!


[Chorus]

I'm a time bomb, just set me off!

My sanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Boom!

I'm a time bomb, ready to bleed!

Humanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Break!


[Verse 2]

I lace my teeth with gold they're rotting from the inside

Bury me seven feet deep, closer to my misery

No air to breathe, no room to think!

(Why don't you) bury me seven fucking feet deep?!

I think I'm okay, I think I'm okay

I think I'm okay, I think I'm okay

But don't you fucking touch me

I think I'm okay, I think I'm okay

I won't be okay

Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick, Boom!


[Chorus]

I'm a time bomb, just set me off!

My sanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Boom!

I'm a time bomb, ready to bleed!

Humanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Break!


[Bridge]

I'm not a martyr, I'm just a fiend

So take a step back, take a step back

Can you see me smiling while I'm hiding in your back seat?

Bury me seven feet deep, closer to my misery

No air to breathe, no room to think

(Why don't you) bury me seven fucking feet deep?!


[Verse 3]

Maybe my day will come

Running waters never brought me to where I belong

(And now I'm blind, god I'm so blind)

My suicide was labeled as a common dose of cyanide

Tick, Tick, Boom!


[Chorus]

I'm a time bomb, just set me off!

My sanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2- Boom!

I'm a time bomb, ready to bleed!

Humanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Break!


[Outro]

Bury me seven feet deep!
