Favorite Quote:
People once believed that, when someone dies, a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead. But sometimes, something so bad happens that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the soul can't rest. Then sometimes, just sometimes, the crow can bring that soul back to put the wrong things right.

Tick tock,
Tick tock,
Twenty minutes left
Tick tock,
Tick tock,
Nineteen minutes left
Tick tock,
Tick tock,
Still nineteen minutes left,
Tick tock,
Tick tock,
Come on time, hurry up
Tick tock,
Tick tock,
I just want this day to be over
Tick tock,
Tick tock,
Minutes please run faster
Tick tock,
Tick tock,
Pretended your running for the gold
Tick tock,
Tick tock,
Not throwing the match for another
Tick tock,
Tick tock,
Hurry up time!
Tick tock,
Tick tock,
I want you to run out
I want this day to end
To go home and cry
Not this infuriating
Tick tock,
Echoing in my mind
