1. SIX SECONDS

Your arms show a map of failures,
Your thoughts, painted on your wrists,
Screaming, to the sky, breaking a promise,
Every day we are out of reach,
Destined? Nothing is set in stone for we,
Have not lived these lives,
Just one more, story of pathetic sadness,
Overcome by the pressures of life,

I’ve become,
A victim to regret,

Enslaved forever, to their thoughts we’re in chains,
Your life is made to fit their eyes,
Their fucking lust, hanging on by tethers,

I thought I knew,
I thought I knew,
I thought I knew,

The cycle begins again,
Never able to understand,
“Now bow down and conform”,
We’re made to fit humanity,
So close but still, out of reach,
We’re blind to what you want to see,
There is no fate,

Time devours me,
I wait helplessly,
Watching hours pass,
Life,

The days are drifting by,
They’re spent, wasted,
Thinking of tomorrow,
The promises I have made,
There is nothing that can change,
More false hope awaits today,

I don’t believe in fate,
There’s no, no time,
But I don’t believe in fate,

Time devours me,
I wait helplessly,
Watching hours pass,
I am wasting life,

Your arms show a map of failures,
Your thoughts painted on your wrists,
There’s no escaping time


2. AFTERMATH

The rain clouds mirror,
My torment under this sea of gray,
Your veil of make-up smears,
Dreams will rot in sweet decay,
Cut by reflections,
Left to drown, in your despair,
Dissect your hopes for love,
Reopen the scars you bare,

The door closes,
He knows you bleed,
He's set you free,

The silence pierces the night followed by a veil of grief,
Wishing that a part of you could undo the fate that's set,
Your pride drips slowly to the basin where your thoughts have lingered,
With pain your misery ceases, fragments of so,

The door closes,
He knows you bleed,
And with your closure,
He's set you free,

The silence pierces the night followed by a veil of grief,
Wishing that a part of you could undo the fate that's set,
Your pride drips slowly to the basin where your thoughts have lingered,
With pain your misery ceases, fragments of so many pieces,

The end is approaching upon us all hope is,
The end is approaching upon us all hope is lost,
Destined to fail,

Are we afraid of the truth,
Are we afraid of the truth,

The door closes,
He knows you bleed,
And with your closure,
He's set you free,

The end is approaching upon us all hope is,
The end is approaching upon us all hope is lost,
Destined to fail
