a single second

Singer:afi

oh my god! my god this can't be happening!

god tell me

tell me this isn't real!

i can't believe all that i have

foreseen is finally happening. i cannot for a single second stand the way i feel. i always knew. i always saw it coming. enveloped now

encased by my worst fear. i've never felt the nausea of longing to feel nothing

i never wanted to cease to

exist

just disappear. fear memories are all that lie ahead. never have i felt so lost. memories dull my senses. fear tragedy is all that lies ahead. never have i felt so dead. once felt so warm

now i'm fucking freezing. i am the once embraced abandoned one. i raised my eyes up to the light in hopes of finding healing;

no relief was mine

i was burnt

by the sun.
