I can hear the tick of the clock,
Too close to my head
It's giving me a headache,
To think of all,
Of all the tick tocks,
I've ever heard,
Only second counted,
Now didn't it,
Once long ago
It was lilke an atom bomb went off in my house,
And everybody left
I wish I were a superhero like the X-Men in the comics,
'Cause maybe then I could've withstood the blast
Oh but I shattered like an ordinary sheet of glass,
And there's not enough superglue in the world

Chorus:
How longhow longhow long
till I feel whole again
How longhow longhow long
till I feel whole again

Oh I wish I were just like the T1000 in Terminator 2,
'Cause he could melt back together again,
Even after Schwartznegger blew him to bits
Yeah he was mean, but he knew exactly who he was
Oh, and incidentally, so did that guy, Kiser Soze,
In Usual Suspects, but he had to blow his whole family away

Chorus

I wish I could lie,
I wish I didn't care,
I wish I could like just like that guy
I wish I could lie,
I wish I didn't care,
I wish I could like just like that guy
I wish I could lie,
I wish I didn't care,
I wish I could like just like that guy

I can hear the tick of that clock,
Still close to my head
Maybe if I couldn't hear the seconds pass,
I wouldn't have to ask:

Chorus

How longhow long
