Counting the Day

[Verse] Clock on the wall ticking steady pace Running through the gears in a frantic race One to ten then I count it to twenty Pockets get heavy but the soul feels empty Twenty-one to thirty climbing up the wall Catch the rhythm now before the curtain call Thirty-one to forty heat is getting high Watching every second as the minutes fly [Chorus] Count it up fast like a runaway train Numbers in a loop spinning in my brain Forty-one to fifty keep the focus tight Breaking down the barrier in the dead of night [Outro] Fifty on the gauge Turning the page Nothing left to say Just counting the day
