Tik tok tik tok
Is the ticking of the clock
As we stare at our screens
While they use our time
to make more green
If every image we scroll past
Is seen as a cage
We realize a zoo
is more closely related
to the digital age
We scroll
and scroll
Seeing time tick away
With our friends putting themselves
In a digital rage
But if we stop
and listen
We may hear a steady beat
That’s made all the chaos
Seem so neat
Grab some friends
and grab that time
tik
tik
tik
tok
Is The Siren to take back
What’s yours and mine
Freeing ourselves
From the monotony of everyday
Like walking off a city bus
Or the sound of a bell
to end a school day
We realize all we need
Is some help
And trust
With our time set
and well on it’s way
We can take a minute and realize
We were not made
To just scroll all day
That we are not a mime
Stuck in this digital zoo
We are humans
With our own time
And voice
Still ticking
To a new tune
