Tears In The Hourglass
Its time for me to go
Nothing to live for, nothing to show
I had you in the palm of my hand
But I let you go and now you're gone.
Case closed, no going back
I said A Thousand years
Did I mention the thousand burning, salty tears?
I shattered the hourglass
Now time will never pass
Time doesn't drift by here anymore
Misery has drilled so deep into my withered heart's core
The coke and rum only do so much
It can't keep away the pain for that long
It leaves a bitter taste in my mouth
Erases away the scar you left upon my lips
Makes me feel sick, sicker than a dog
It's poison traveling through my body
Running through my veins
Making me numb to the bone
Wish I could say it helps
But it only leaves me dead and alone
I can't say I'm living yet only existing
Can't keep running
Running from fear
Running from pain
Running from lonely
Running from me
Its time for me to leave
I failed to succeed
I failed to believe
I failed the chance to have a perfect life
I failed me
I had an angle, yet killed him off
I took the arrow and shot him down
No longer do I see him
No longer does he see me
I was confused, did not know he was here to help me.
Did not get past my pride.
Did not realize he was my savior.
Did not know he would be the one to help me fight off the war with myself.
Did not know he would be the one to pull me from the wreckage.
Everyday is the same
Withered and broken down, I lay on the ground, I have lost the game
My body is left rotting away from the pain and lonely
From the rum and hate
From a broken heart, I brought upon myself.
From the war battling inside my head.
Laying, I feel the memories seep through my veins.
I feel the red liquid coming from me, surrounding my limp body and so much
more.
The blade was dull and weak.
Yet stronger than me, mentally and physically.
I feel the medication taking its toll.
I had to take it, so my death would be for sure.
It's time for me to go now.
No bags, no money, only my soul.
I have but one thing to ask, before death replaces me.
Nothing more, I just need to know
Has it been A Thousand Years yet....?
Its time for me to go
Nothing to live for, nothing to show
I had you in the palm of my hand
But I let you go and now you're gone.
Case closed, no going back
I said A Thousand years
Did I mention the thousand burning, salty tears?
I shattered the hourglass
Now time will never pass
