My time is coming
No matter how much I try to sleep
I do nothing but toss and turn
I keep fighting hell that I call a clock
My time is coming
I can hear the lost and sighing souls
As the warden comes by for head count
Looking for the next soul to take
My time is coming
All I can think of is the ticking and tocking coming from my clock
What seemed to be soft ticks during the day
Now sounds like the explosions going off
My time is coming
As I see my bunkmates gets flashed and hear it's your time
As I see their lifeless body walk towards the light
That I see for a couple seconds
Now I know it is My time soon
So I throw My covers over and try close my eyes to try to get some rest
But it is too late because what was supposed to be 2 hours of sleep
Turned to feeling like it was only 2 minutes
I hear one of the wardens open the door
And walk towards Me
Flashing his light to my face and telling Me
It's your time for fire guard and be ready in 5 minutes
