Cheat Death |
I’ve been stabbing at the dark |
Praying for some kind of ending |
Bruised and beaten, hardened breathing |
I’ve been fighting a war that I can’t win |
A room full of no one |
Myself against myself |
And I never meant to drag you down |
Because if you wanna know the truth… |
It’s that I’d break this fucking world in two |
If that’s what I had to do |
I need your hand to pull me back from that dead-end sting of doubt; |
Like I’m pissing on a burning building |
Like I’m burning just to burn out |
Now I’m braking harder |
Those spinning feelings are slowing so I can’t lose grip |
The sheer fact of living’s like I’m cheating death |
And I’ve been trying, but understanding mercy while I’m hanging from a rope has |
me feeling like humanity is one sick joke |
And I can’t stop laughing |
I’ve been dying to live, playing absolutes in a time where faith’s misused |
Burdened by my own morality, you know I love to lose |
Abandon old traditions |
Break the unwillingness to change |
There are no second chances, the clock ticks until it breaks |
I’m giving everything I have to give |
Fighting a war I can’t win |
Cheat Death |
