My life is made up of seconds6:25 PM
300 seconds until mom gets home
6:26 PM
10 seconds until he's finished
6:27 PM
180 seconds to clean up
6:28 PM
120 seconds to hide his protection
6:29 PM
69 seconds to forget
6:30 PM
Smile
So she thinks everything is ok
Smile
To fool yourself into thinking it's ok
Smile
So he won't punish you
Be good
For mom's sake
For your sake
For your safety
Tomorrow
The timer restarts
