rusted over

i can see the desperation in your eyes

no means to forgive

no will to forget

and the only thing you have left to hold

is that empty bottle and your half full glass

you've burned every bridge you've walked

sunk every ship

but still you wonder how you ended up like this

sinking slowly in a sea of regret

stagnant

frozen in fear of what is coming next

shallow breath

helplessness

scared to death

he was a man with a heart of gold

it's hard to see him go like this

he suffered for far too long

but rest assured he left in peace and quiet

i can't hold it in

i can't choke it back

i tried to bury it deep inside my chest

i can't hold it in

i can't choke it back

but in a way that poor old man was me

and this is just a flash back

leave now

but don't go to far now

don't go too far away

find rest

you took a piece of me and i can't get it back

you fought so long

you're time has come

let the wind take you now

take me with you

i can't hold it in

i can't choke it back

i can never forget

i could see the desperation in your eyes

no means to forgive

no will to forget

and the only thing you have left to hold

is that empty bottle and your half full glass

you've burned every bridge you've walked

sunk every ship

but still you wonder how you ended up like this

sinking slowly in a sea of regret. stagnant

frozen in fear of what is coming next

shallow breath

helplessness

scared to death

they say the last ten seconds of life

are the best or the worst you'll have

breathe

let your heart beat

while it still can
