10 Seconds Left
With A Roll Of Tape, Trying To Fix My Head.
Too Late To Escape, I Fell Again.
Too Many Nasty Shapes, Outline The Dead.
A Bridge To Traipse, I Fall In Ten.
10 Seconds Left Until The End.
Let Go Of The Rope, Fear The Feelings.
Rid Yourself Of Hope, It Still Steals.
The Light Begins To Cope, Nothing But Dirty Dealings.
Can't Be Cleaned With Soap, Crowded With Ideals.
9 Seconds Left Until The End.
I Got Lost, But Didn't Cry.
I Got Caught In A Frost, But Didn't freeze.
I Found Out The Costs, But Didn't Ask Why.
I Got Tossed, And Dropped The Keys.
8 Seconds Left Until The End.
The Keys Are Gone, The Keys To My Heart.
Playing A Pawn, I Got Torn To Pieces.
I Finally Won, A War That Tore Me Apart.
Maybe I'm Done, With A Pain That Never Ceases.
7 Seconds Left Until The End.
A Knocking At My Door, Salvation?
Salvation No More, Despair.
My Blood Covers The Floors, Deterioration.
So Many New Wars, Poisoning The Air.
6 Seconds Left Until The End.
I Wish I Knew Joy, I Wish I Did.
I Wish I Wasn't Koi, Not So Much.
I Wish It Wasn't All Just Ploys, I Wouldn't Have Hid.
I Wish I Wasn't Someone's Toys, But The Heart I cannot Touch.
5 Seconds Left Until The End.
What Am I To Say, I Always Hide.
The End Isn't Far Away, And I Just Bury Myself.
I Just Play, To Scared To Care Inside.
4 Seconds Left Until The End.
When Did The World Turn Grey, Was It Always Like This?
When Was Everything No Longer Okay, Is This Fear?
3 Seconds Left Until The End.
Until I Vanish Into Dust, Let's Pretend.
2 Seconds Left Until The End.
Aw. I Didn't Even Get To Finish Counting.
