Amanda Palmer - Strength Through Music Lyrics

Locked in his bedroom he saw the world
A web of answers and gunshot girls
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick

Don't bother blaming his games and guns
He's only playing and boys just want to have fun

He picked a soundtrack and packed his bag
He hung his walkman around his neck

It looks so simple, the way they fall
No final whimper, no sound at all
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tock
