Where were you today?
I'm not sure if I should tell you
What have you got to say?
I'm sorry

You said you wanna stay
I know, I know, I know, I've tried
So why did you run away?

You, can't you see I'm tick'n like a time bomb?
Well, I'm tick'n like a time bomb
Won't somebody come and light my fuse?

What will it be tonight?
I won't know until I get there
What do you hope to find?
Some answers

But tears may fill your eyes
I know, I know but I'll be fine
So why do you need to fly?
I just know I've got to try

You've always had more than you need
So why are you a stranger to me?

Can't ya see I'm tick'n like a time bomb?
Well, I'm tick'n like a time bomb
Gettin' ready to explode

Don't you know I'm tick'n like a time bomb? Oh yeah
I'm just tick'n like a time bomb
Won't somebody come and light my fuse?

Where were you today?
I'm not sure if I should tell you
What have you got to say?
I'm not sorry

You said you wanna play
I know, I know, I know, I lied
So why'd you run away?

Show me, show me I'll show you mine
I'm not blind, all revealed in good time
Tell me who made silence a crime?
Don't be shy, it's not all in my mind

Can't ya see I'm tick'n like a time bomb? Oh yeah
Oh, I'm tick'n like a time bomb
Somebody light my fuse

Tick'n like a time bomb
I've got nothin' to lose
Ooh, I'm tick'n like a time bomb
Won't somebody come and light my fuse?

Tick'n like a time bomb, oh yeah
Don't ya know I'm tick'n like a time bomb? Oh yeah
I'm tick'n like a time bomb
