lyrics

It’s been a long ride, echoing embers of lost time
Eager to get away, the darkness is my one escape
I look for snowflakes in the sand and lay them down on surfaces
Until I forget how it feels to be meaningless

I’m counting down on broken clocks
Now my heart keeps pumping, will it ever stop?
I keep ticking away like a time bomb in a masquerade
I think tonight’s the night I’ll lose all of my senses

This is a eulogy for lost youth and broken dreams
In the palm of my hand I hold the key
To the end of misery but the start of my defeat
I can’t believe it’s come to this
Nosebleeds and selfish mindlessness
Glass shards to rid the pain
I haven’t slept in fucking days
Whiskey until my liver bleeds
These open veins could fill the sea
I think I’ll drown amongst the words
“what could have been?”

I turned to crutches just to find the strength to carry on
Searching for reasons to my pain and why I feel alone
To think I made it ’til this long before I lost control
Maybe the key is hiding in the past when I was young
I swore I’d never be the person that I’ve now become
So on the edge of life just hoping I can keep it up
But when the view from far above is looking beautiful
Its hard to climb back down without letting go

I find it hard to take that I was due an early grave
(pull me up, I’ve gone insane)
I’m sorry mummy but you failed, I’m not the person that you made
I won’t make it to old age, at least that’s what the voices say
(pull me up, I’ve gone insane)
When everything just sounds the same I’d rather die than go insane
I find it hard to take that I was due an early grave
(Pull me up, I’ve gone insane)
I’m sorry mummy but you failed, I’m not the person that you made
see I won’t make it to old age at least that’s what the voices say
(Pull me up I’ve gone insane)
It’s too fucking late, it’s too fucking late
