Genuflect Slowly Falling Faster
When I die in my dreams ... I see you Let the road erode
When I die in my dreams I see my life like movie scenes I'm paralyzed Eyes fixated on the screen I'm in this dark theatre I'm all alone I am in oblivion And I am finally home I see every day, clip by clip do i crumble? do i stand tall? do i slip? do i stumble? rumble in the belly I'm so hungry that I tremble I watch my whole world disassembled I watch myself watch TV, I watch myself feeding I watch myself sleep and play my CD's I watch the whole world pass me by I watch myself work, watch myself jerk, watch myself lie I watch the days turn to months, then to years While my soul sleeps dormant under instituted fears Many tears shed Am I really dead or still just dreaming Spent my whole life hiding from myself- My inner demons Now I'm screaming out, but there's no sound Just a clock counting down to the end of everything that I am Like sand slowly falling fast through the hour glass We all know nothing ever lasts so everybody wears their own mask I'm in this dark theatre, inside my head But then the hairs on my neck stand up in sudden dread I feel someone else here, not me, not the clock Something more sinister waiting, lurking in the dark
It says- "I'm a God, I'm a devil, I am death And I may look harmless but I am poisonous I may hear, I may see, I may touch, I may breath and I may taste so good but I am poisonous"
I can't escape- It's too late- This is my tomb And I can hear that voice laughing from the back of the room I feel its cold hands tearing through me... the end is close I don't believe in miracles anymore- No, but I believe in ghosts
