Mother May I (Tic Toc) lyrics

[Intro]
Tick tock, time is up
Tick tock, time is up

[Verse 1]
(I know you)
You're the one on the magazine covers and everyone loves ya
(Such a star)
You're the one everyone wants to be like, but no one can be

[Chorus]
Mother, may I have a moment?
Feel I've come undone
Can you stop me from this spinning?
Nowhere left to run

[Post-Chorus]
Special's a term that they use to describe someone
When they're afraid to admit that they're right

[Verse 2]
(I see you)
You're the one that's in all of the movies, on everyone's TV
(Such a farce)
You're convinced that your sh*t doesn't stink and we all should adore you
[Chorus]
Father, can you stop this bleeding?
Hate what we've become
I've turned my cheek so many times
Fear I'm almost done

[Post-Chorus]
Death is a term that they use to describe something
They can't accept 'cause it comes with a price
Tick tock
Tick tock

[Bridge]
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change
The courage to change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference

[Chorus]
Father, can you stop this bleeding?
Hate what we've become
I've turned my cheek so many times
Fear I'm almost done
