The Flatliners

We scratch these walls that we have builtnThis disbelief is uselessnWe pull these stakes we've driven innAnd I'm pumped dry, can you see it?nWE fade to black and I'm giving innMy blood, it spills on the citynI'm ripped apart, back at the beginningnCan I say?nThis confession of the heart will bleed until its endnIf we ever see the beginningnMy throat is dried out, much like my patiencenAnd your nails are digging innAs my ribcage cracks and I exhale this dying breathnI see your facenI see your facenAnd I see that perfect smile fadenThese bones I keep in my closet keep me from the skin that is clinging to menNot sure of what were the best days, and everything in between seems obsoletenI feel I'm grounded with this weight that is breathing down my necknI'm paralyzed with no confirmation of hope yetnBut the world will tease until all eyes are on menWith this bitter taste dripping off of my teethnMy bloody hands struggling to come cleannI've bled out all my reasoningnAnd I've watched your syllables subsidenBut for good measure this time I'll smilenUntil my teeth are rotting gumsnUntil I lose my fucking mindnI heard you're doing great, I'm doing just finenThe blood these knuckles have spared hasn't helped me wrap my head around thisnAnd from the water's edge, I'm losing mine in the shallow endnI'm the one in the back with fingernails in my eyesnIt took me years to see the situation fitnDon't look now as I fake a smile, a thought, memory when I don't give a shitnI've said this all beforenI've said it loud enoughnAnd I've said it a thousand timesnMy veins are hollowed out and I drop like a bomb you never even saw comingnThese last days and this blackened heart has ceased to beatnWon't even start pumpingnI always feel like I'm waiting around for tomorrownThese eyes can't see what's lying right there in front of menWhat's lying right there in front of menAnd these walls all crumble to the groundnThe sky is red and its coming downnI will never come downnI will never come downnWe scratch these walls that we have builtnBut this time I am letting gonThis time I am letting gonWe pull these stakes we've driven innBut this time I am letting gonFade to black our tomorrows...
