I've watched the whole world drowning in chemicals Dissociative, but it takes it's toll Can I surpass time, or would I start to rust? Depreciating, collecting dust
And I fear myself as I fall away In a cold deluded sense of fate When the nightmares come, and the doubt sets in Will the fever break, or will I burn from within?
It's too late to feel, I've lost my breath With the hands of time around my neck Am I more than the pen that wrote the past? Or am I just the sand enslaved by the hourglass?
Will I live again or will I fade to black? Dehumanizing, when the heart attacks Will I expire before my dreams unfold? But if the futures so bright, the path should glow
As the walls melt And the light fades I'm letting quicksand take me
If you look beyond the blindfold You'll find the hole in my soul One fear, one mind, no hope, no time If you look beyond the blindfold You'll find the hole in my soul
I'm on the edge of my seat Holding out for a sign Trying to rewrite the storyline
It's too late to feel I've lost my breath With the hands of time around my neck Am I more than the pen that wrote the past? Or am I just the sand encased in the hourglass?
