Lyrics by Justin Zimmer, music by Suno - Full Playlist
[intro][whispered] Tick-tock. Tick-tock. I'm late again. Stumble to my seat, such a clumsy girl! Every eye watching me, judging me, reminding me I'll never be good enough. You stupid girl! [verse] Teachers droning on and on What's the lesson? What's going on? I don't know how to thrive here Just wanna shrivel up and die here! What was the assignment again? I'm going to fail! [pre-chorus] A thousand eyes are watching me inside my own head A thousand voices telling me I'll never be enough [chorus] Tick-tock. Tick-tock. You're late again. Take your seat you lazy girl. Clumsy awkward stupid girl! Wait, what was the question? [bass drop] [bridge][spoken-word][storytelling] A boy raises his hand, and his words light my mind on fire. The imagery, the mystery. I can see it in my head. But I can't stop it, I can't turn it off. I wake up standing at the window with a thousand eyes watching me! [verse] The teacher asks me what I think. But I can't think! I shrink. I spill out all my feelings anyway. Then they all start whispering, mocking me, giggling, jubilant at my misery! [pre-chorus] A thousand eyes are watching me inside my own head A thousand voices telling me I'll never be enough [chorus] Tick-tock. Tick-tock. You're late again. Take your seat you lazy girl. Clumsy awkward stupid girl! Can you repeat the question? [bridge][screaming] WHY ARE THEY LOOKING AT ME! LAUGHING AT ME! JUDGING ME! I THINK OF ALL THE THINGS I COULD HAVE SAID! THE THINGS I SHOULD HAVE SAID! HOW DO I ESCAPE THIS MISERY! [verse] Then the bell rings, and I can finally leave, just to do it all again. My hands are shaking. My heart is quaking. Will I make it through the day? [pre-chorus] A thousand eyes are watching me inside my own head A thousand voices telling me I'll never be enough [chorus] Tick-tock. Tick-tock. You're late again. Take your seat you lazy girl. Clumsy awkward stupid girl! I didn't hear the question! [bridge][spoken-word][storytelling] Then that boy, he stops me, he thanks me. He wants to study with me? The lazy girl? The stupid girl? Now, only his eyes are watching me. He sees me, he calms me. I want to say yes more than anything. [sad outro][melancholy] But I'm scared. So I say I can't. I'm a lying girl, scaredy girl useless worthless stupid girl [end]
