Strung up and tuned to the key of anxiety
|
He watches intently
|
Stayed up ruined another day of sleep
|
He drifts off immediately
|
And he's dreaming
|
Waiting for his heart to leave this throat
|
Back to his chest
|
Sleeve's wet with water from his brow
|
Up to the surface
|
|
Talked up
|
And beat to the point of nothing
|
He washes discretely
|
Dressed up
|
Covered from head to toe
|
Stripped down naked sleeping off the shame
|
|
Dreaming
|
Waiting for his heart to leave this throat
|
Back to his chest
|
Eyes wet his yawns from a lack of air in head
|
|
How could i breathe
|
With this elephant
|
On my chest
|
Just enough to live
|
Wide eyed alive
|
|
How could i think
|
With my heart beating
|
Out of my chest
|
Im completely
|
Wide eyed alive
|
|
Thought process com back to me
|
I'm practiced but out of my league
|
I'll dress thius mannequin to mirrow image
|
Then quench my thirst on this
|
Salt-water fountain
|
|
How could i breathe
|
Wide eyed alive
|
Wide eyed alive
|
|
How could i think
|
Wide eyed alive
|
Wide eyed alive
|
