Inch by inch the people move forward.
Slowly but surely you'll get to the destination.
With a cluster of indecipherable conversations
and the smell of lingering food and big machines
people move forward inch by inch.
You'll get to the destination slowly but surely.
People ride your heels more than they ride the rides.
With the emotion of impatience overwhelmed inside
and close enough to kick in anxiety
inch by inch the people move forward.
Slowly but surely you'll get to the destination.
The sun burns in the sky and raises the temperature of the air.
Soon to smell the closest scent of sweat.
The humid breath creeps around the back of your neck.
The tension is silent but everyone can feel it.
People move forward inch by inch.
You'll get to the destination slowly but surely.
A step that could be pushed back won’t affect time.
Time can’t elapse no matter how hard you try.
Each minute will always have those 60 seconds.
Inch by inch the people move forward.
Slowly but surely you'll reach the destination.
Their next step is when I finally lost all control.
flat tire is what it’s called.
ripping it clean off my foot.
Sock revealed and hot feet steaming
Snapping here. Yelling there.
“Back off *****, I can’t even breathe”
“Step back man, I need some space”
The people move forward inch by inch.
You'll reach the destination slowly but surely.

Q's
Who are you?
Why did I fall for you?
Why did you choose him?
Why did you hurt me?
Why do you do the things you do?
Do you think you're sneaky?
Did you think you were going to get away with it?
Do you like hurting me?
Did it pleasure you to see my heart break?
Why do I keep coming back?
Why am I the one there for you when you need someone?
Why do you say that you love me?
Why do I listen to you?
How come you don't listen to me when I say I love you?
Do you believe me?
Why would I do anything for you?
Why do you keep calling my name?
Do you want me back?
Why do you hurt me then?
Why do I still care about you so much?
Do you know that its not possible for me to leave you?
Why did you finally choose me?
Did it really take you that long to notice?
Are you happy with me?
Did I do something wrong?
Where are you going?
Why are you leaving?
Why did you lie?
How come you're going out with someone else now?
What did I do?
Will you ever come back?
What do I do?
Do I wait?
Do I move on?
Who else is there?
Why does she seem perfect compared to everyone else?
How did I let her slip through my fingers?
How could I be so stupid?
How about that other girl?
Will it work?
Does she like me?
Why did she tell me she loves me already?
Why are we holding hands?
Why are we getting close?
Why did she tell me that this feels right when it feels so wrong?
How come I can't move on?
Why didn't she have a problem moving on?
How come I feel like I have to get away.
Why are rumors starting?
What do people think I did?
Why can't I think straight?
Why can't anything ever work out right?
Is it me?
Do I ask too many questions?

It's not like waking up from a nightmare.
'Cause when you wake up
The nightmare ends.
This is much different.
It's like waking up into a nightmare.
This ones real.
This one won't go away no matter how hard you pinch yourself.
Even though it doesn't seem safe while you're dreaming
You're actually quite safe there.
But this.
It's too real.
There's nothing safe about it.
There are risks around each corner.
Unpredictable things.
You wake up into hell.
A place you never wanted to see.
Yet it's there right in front of you.
Staring you in the face.
All you see are the million machines beeping.
Keeping you alive.
Then you feel the tube down your throat.
Feeding you icky mush.
You panic and freak out because you don't know what’s going on.
Your arms and legs are secure and you can't move.
A tear escapes and runs down your cheek.
No one you know to help you.
Just the stranger with the face mask on.
Blurry voices say "Shh. It's okay. Try and relax."
You fall back asleep to forget what just happened.
Ten minutes later you awake again to the startling sight of machines hooked up to you.
Once again you can't move.
The voice repeats itself and you go back to sleep.
Every few minutes you wake up to the same nightmare.
This reoccurring nightmare that is a surprise each time.
And all you wish for is to end it.
But you keep waking up.

Lie to me as I watch you 
Watching you lie to me
"Hectic day, meet tmr?"
I stand 3 feet away 
Invisible, pretending not to see
as you lie to me
You think nothing of it
As I watch you lie to me
You sit there alone,
Waiting
Calm
Nothing hectic about it
I watch you
Doing nothing
And you ******* off
Saying hectic day?!
*******!
For the way you treat me
*******!
For the way you view yourself
*******!
For you and your lying ways
*******!
For ******* her
You think you're so perfect
Don't you?
I know that's what you think
How can you treat me like that
You cheater and liar
You fake *******
I was sorry
For the things I never did
But fury takes over easily
As I watch you lie to me
I hate your guts
I hate how you think
That you're doing nothing wrong
Everything you do is wrong
You broke me without a second glance back
You dropped me like I was a rotten apple
I gave you everything
I hope you miss me one day
Cause I'll never be there
I hope you need me one day
Cause I'll never be there 
I'll never come back
**** that ****

What am I?
Invisible to you?
Your backs turned
But I know you saw me.
Hoping for me to approach you
But I wont
You foolish foolish *****
I was the fool for too long

What happen to that feeling of desire
You fought for my love
As many times as I've turned away
You were there fighting for me
You knew what you wanted
And what you wanted was me
You saved me from myself, baby
You pulled my head above the water
My lungs are filled with your scent now, baby
I want to bury myself into you
Keep you forever
I crave your warm body
Your warm love wrapped around my heart
We had a passion for each other
Where did it go, baby?
Now that you finally have me
Why are you shutting me out?
Don't let all that war go to waste
Baby, listen.
Come back

I thought that smile was for me
I fought for every second of it
My determination to win
To have you in my arms again
I shot every bad mood away
My last chance to have you again
The pain of fabrication
My smile can't hold
The lies in my blind side
My naive beliefs
How could you?
I thought we had something real
Something that would last forever
Our dreams planned together
Was that all your fantasy? 
Just to play around with me?
I thought this was love
You were all that I had
I threw everything away for you
Now I have nothing
While I watch you live your life like nothing ever even happened.
