The Song
Lyrics
Going forwards on the clock,
I can feel my fate unlock,
Fighting demons in my chest,
Till my one last waking breath.
Music is my hourglass,
Wonder which song will be last,
Emotions fleeting out of me,
From the hurt that these eyes see.
Well I can stand but I can’t sleep,
Life is hard but I don’t weep,
I can’t live but I can die,
These aren’t tears in my eyes,
Affording hours I have left,
To feed upwards consuming theft,
Devil hates me but my eyes,
Don’t show pain nor do they try.
Am I waiting to die,
As I try to live this life?
Creatures crawl around me,
As the leaves fall from this tree,
I give they take what’s rooted deep,
There’s nothing left but still they creep.
What’s the envy when we love?
When it all ends way to rough,
Promise safety we can’t hold,
Until the end of the road.
Well I can stand but I can’t sleep,
Life is hard but I don’t weep,
I can’t live but I can die,
These aren’t tears in my eyes,
Affording hours I have left,
To feed upwards consuming theft,
Devil hates me but my eyes,
Don’t show pain nor do they try.
Am I waiting to die,
As I try to live this life?
Well I’ll try something brand new,
Write this song it’s all for you,
Consume me deeply with your lies,
Promises unbroken ties.
A tight noose around my neck,
Fuck it all, fuck it to heck
Devil hates me yet my eyes,
They show pain because I tried.
Well I will stand and I will sleep,
Life is hard but now I weep,
I will live before I die,
Ill die with tears in my eyes,
Dwindling hours I have left,
And the strength I have bereft,
Devil hates my now my eyes,
They show pain because I tried.
I’m not waiting to die.
I’m just trying… to live this life.
