Someone Name Me

What he wants with his life
Three kids, a pretty housewife
He’s got it all worked out
He can move on without a doubt
Who me, well I see
A desk job is lonely
They’ve left, I know
But do I have to be all alone?
Keep the future under key and lock
I want to stop the clock
I’ve come to dread each passing day
Time please don’t take them away
And even if you can still hear me shout
The years will still run out
The clock says 12, tomorrow is here
That’s what I fear
I was five years old
Doin' everything I had been told
I believed what they said
‘Bout the monsters underneath my bed
And now, a teen
Already thinkin' back to where I have been
All the things I dread
The monsters are inside my head
Keep the future under key and lock
I want to stop the clock
I’ve come to dread each passing day
Time please don’t take them away
And even if you can still hear me shout
The years will still run out
The clock says 12, tomorrow is here
That’s what I fear
I’m not quite sure how
I got here or where I’ll go now
Ahead of me, a crossroads
But I’m afraid of what the future holds
What am I, a lost soul?
Wandering until I grow old
Watch the time tick past
Wish I could make these moments last
Keep the future under key and lock
I want to stop the clock
I’ve come to dread each passing day
Time please don’t take them away
And even if you can still hear me shout
The years will still run out
The clock says 12, tomorrow is here
That’s what I fear
