A little morbid...

The Clock

The clock ticks

Tick Tock Tick Tock

And then it stops

With the beating of my heart

Dead as night

Oh what a sight

No more movement for tonight

Tick tock tick tock

The clock ticks

And tocks

And then it stops

And leaves me here

Fraying rope

Without a boat

Knife to the throat

The clock ticks

The clock tocks

Tick Tock Tick Tock

And then it stops

My body coughs

Lying still

No more thrill

Goodbye world

The end is near

As the clock ticks

And tocks

And finally

Stops
