  • Only thing I've ever done

    Closest I've ever come
    Only thing I've ever done
    Ticking time is running out

    Closest I've ever come
    Ticking time is running out

    Oh so tired on my own
    Ticking time is running out

    Best days I've ever known
    Ticking time is running out

    Yesterday I found out the world was ending
    Yesterday I found out the world was ending

    A little more
    Every day
    Falls apart and
    Slips away

    I don't mind
    I'm okay
    Wish it didn't
    Have to end this way

    These four walls are closing in
    Ticking time is running out

    Of all the things that might have been
    Ticking time is running out yeah

    Watch young love is fucking back
    Ticking time is running out yeah

    God forgive me if I cry
    Ticking time is running out

    A little more
    Every day
    Falls apart and
    Slips away

    I don't mind
    I'm okay
    Nothing ever
    Stays the same

    While we can
    Remember when
    Always running
    Even then

    Stay with me
    Hold me near

    And I'm still here Writer/s: Hank Williams Sr., Trent Reznor
