Time Bomb - The Sharks

When life is like a book

That has a missing page

A mind is full of thoughts

That torture you with age

What secrets do you find

Behind those lying eyes?

You are all alone

But never on your own

With those voices in your head

And horrors in your home

And do you hear those cries

When you close those tired eyes?

And when you lift those floorboards

In the middle of the night

Don’t you know that someday

It is gonna come to light

Like a time bomb,

The fuse is lit

And the time is ticking away

A nation wonders why

And a hundred camera men

Appalled at what they hear

Await the moment when

The secrets that you hide

Are no longer kept inside

Oh mother pray for me I can’t sleep 'till you set me free

From this time bomb

When life is like a book

That has a missing page

The only thing to do Is throw the book away

With those secrets that you hide

Behind those lying eyes
