Tick Tick

Why is there love with so much pain?
I'm gathering dust, waiting for you to wind me again
I've been still so long I've forgotten how to dance
You turn on the light, but I'm frightened you'll lose patience

I'm trying every little, every little thing, I can do
To be enough, be enough, be enough for you

You stretch me so thin
A fight I can't win
You tear my heart open
A puppet on a string
You play and I sing
Then you leave me hanging
And oh, what a cruel trick
You know how to make me tick, tick

So hypnotic, your coiling
I should crumble but I cling
You're tangled and twisted
You're cutting and bowing and blind to the scene
And your scissors are bleeding and I'm screaming

I'm trying every little, every little thing, I can do
To be enough, be enough, be enough for you

You stretch me so thin
A fight I can't win
You tear my heart open
A puppet on a string
You play and I sing
Then you leave me hanging
And oh, you're so cruel
Just when I think I've had enough of you
That's when you start pulling
And I start unraveling

I'm trying every little, every little thing, I can do
To be enough, be enough, be enough for you

You stretch me so thin
A fight I can't win
You tear my heart open
A puppet on a string
You play and I sing
Then you leave me hanging
And oh, what a cruel trick
You know how to make me tick

You stretch me so thin
A fight I can't win
You tear my heart open
A puppet on a string
You play and I sing
Then you leave me hanging
And oh, what a cruel trick
You know how to make me tick, tick
