Brylee's words for father.
Tick tock, tick tock, tick.
I hear the thudding of my heart.
Tick tock, tick tock, tick.
Your voice rings, but it's not true.

What is father? Who does he love?
Words would be more time
Than you spend with
Me.

Tick tock, tick tock, tick.
I see the wrapping of your guilt.
Tick tock, tick tock, tick.
Your voice rings, but it's not true.

What is father? What does he speak?
Money rolls out, swirls and grasps,
Tugging at the spark of
Me.

Tick tock, tick tock, tick.
You can't see you're losing,
Losing the best of
Me.

Tick tock, tick tock, tick.
