Ticking Mouth

Smiles like bullets, looks that could kill

Don't be caught with a hand in the thrill

Not always a matter of choice

And I hear a ticking in your voice

A numbing cold that weakens the will

A wining way that sweetens the pill

Not always a matter of choice

And I hear a ticking in your voice

Close together, we stand apart

Is that a ticking in your heart?

And I hear a ticking in your heart

A raging silence that lies cannot fill

A numbing cold that weakens the will

Not always a matter of choice

And I hear a ticking in your voice

Is that a ticking in your voice?
