Against The Ticking Clocks

Could i have miscalculated again?
I'm patient calm and quiet, but how long will this last?
We're standing side stage eager and ready, just waiting for a cue. so open the curtains and turn on the spotlight it's time to introduce.

The stage is set and this is the perfect moment.
And aren't we so close.

These arent the things we learned in school.
And this is a work in progress. we're racing against the ticking clocks now.

You get what you get.
And im a mess but that never mattered anyway.
And lately its been quiet, just a bit to quiet for me.
