Something's wrong, I can feel it in my blood.
Time is running too fast,
Forever doesn't last.
Screaming in the shadows,
Smiling by the light of day.
What have I done?
Faces I remember warmly,
Fade away with looks of hate.
I don't understand.
Forever is a cruel joke,
When soft whispers make promises,
You'll never keep.
The dagger is in my hand,
Sharp words on my tongue ready to shed blood.
The walls are too high,
I'm sufficating.
It's me.
I've done it.
Time stops and I'm alone.
The past slips through my fingers like sand.
Laughter rings mad in my own ears
As tears carve paths in ivory skin.
The blade falls.
Let the crimpson tides flow again.
