Counting Down

Anything I see is written out Anything I feel is without a doubt Scarred into my mind from what I’ve been Stolen away from me, I should have seen Knowledge of a lie, I’ll give to you Knowledge at this time can’t get me through Anger infected trust is my only love Destroying everything and breathing rust If you think you feel, I’ll step away If you think I’m here, I’ll never stay Holding you so close, I’ll give you up Kill myself for love and what I’ve done Everything I use will steal my heart Everything I touch will fall apart Always for myself no matter what Always in the end, never the start Decaying in a frame to give me time Decaying in some pain to build a rhyme Decaying in to you to drink this wine Decaying is an essence of what was mine Counting down I don’t mind Starting once again, I know I’ll find Reasons to redeem and make me blind Reason enough to take you one more time Living to exist, though once I died Counting down Soon I lied
