You're throwing in the towel, time again
You're throwing in the towel, the laundry's been
Drying for awhile
You're in such denial
You say with a smile
"Let's run the cycle again"

(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, tick)
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, if you're gonna give up)

You're running with a screw loose, you've lost your mind
You're running with a screw loose for all this time
I called up the mechanic
You're in such a panic
Jack and Rose on the Titanic
Guess the ship will sink in time

Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
Been sitting here waiting awhile now, woah
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
If you're gonna give up, just give up now

I've been sitting around waiting for you
For all my life, woah
I have wasted my time waiting for you
To get your shit together
Get like any better
Get your shit together
'Cause I'm a fool

You're driving down a dark road, a dead end street
You're driving down a dark road, already seen
Must've smashed your headlights
'Cause your head is not right
No more gas for old fights
Fill up the tank again

(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, tick)
(Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, if you're gonna give up)

You're begging for surrender, the white flag's waved
You're begging for surrender with no war waged
I'm standing at the front lines
Stars starting to align
Think it's time I resign
It's time you fight for yourself

Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
Been sitting here waiting awhile now, woah
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
If you're gonna give up, just give up now

I've been sitting around waiting for you
For all my life, woah
I have wasted my time waiting for you
To get your shit together
Get like any better
Get your shit together
'Cause I'm a fool

Foolishly I followed
You, I had my mouth full
Of the words you've never heard
Foolishly stood stagnant
Stuck to your cold black magnet
Do I find comfort in the hurt?
Maybe this is all deserved
