Tock by tock
Same small load
Same small load
Morning comes in lines
I move through the frame
Hands on the routine
Face stays the same
It’s not a collapse
It’s a careful hold
A little more pressure
A little less gold
I keep it neat
I keep it near
You won’t see
What’s building here
Step by step
I pass the test
Quietly worn
But still the best
Still functioning
Still functioning
I hold my shape
I hold my shape
Still functioning
Still functioning
Not broken yet
Just under strain
Cards on the counter
Bills in a row
Keys in the dish
And I never say so
The seams stay shut
The lights stay low
I laugh at the right time
Then let it go
I keep it neat
I keep it near
You won’t see
What’s building here
Step by step
I pass the test
Quietly worn
But still the best
Still functioning
Still functioning
I hold my shape
I hold my shape
Still functioning
Still functioning
Not broken yet
Just under strain
If I slow down
You’ll hear the gear
Grinding a little
Too loud in here
So I stay clean
I stay composed
Nothing spills out
Nothing shows
Still functioning
Still functioning
I hold my shape
I hold my shape
Still functioning
Still functioning
Not broken yet
Just under strain
Tock by tock
Same small load
Still functioning
Still holding load
