Song Lyrics

"Time Bomb"

by Jacob's Trouble
Album: Jacob's Trouble

Hey.

There's something in the shadows, and I fear it's got a hold on me,
A black and shapeless something at the edge of everything I see.

I feel it close in on me,
I'm a time bomb, baby.

A well of secret shame is buried deep inside my crooked heart,
It's quiet on the surface, but inside it's tearing me apart, alright,

I need someone to talk to,
I'm a time bomb, baby.

I'm a time bomb, baby, and I'm running out of time,
This mad parade of secrets is just about to blow my mind.

The rattling of them bones inside my closet keeps me up all night,
The only way to shut them up is let them out into the light.

The skeletons are laughing.

I'm a time bomb, baby, and I'm running out of time,
This mad parade of secrets is just about to blow my mind.

I am out of control, (control)
Oh God, please defuse my soul, oh.

I lie awake in this bed I've made, conscious of the fact that every piper gets paid,
Well, a man's gonna reap what he sows - if that's true, then I've got a reaping coming, and it's long overdue.

I'm a time bomb, baby, and I'm running out of time,
This mad parade of secrets is just about to blow my mind,
I'm a time bomb, baby, and I'm running out of time,
This mad parade of secrets is just about to blow my...blow my mind,

I'm a time bomb, baby,
I'm a time bomb, baby, oh yeah,
I'm a time bomb, baby,
I'm a time bomb, baby,
You dropped a bomb on me.
