Pulses though my veins
Coating my every breath
The memories of yesterday
Creeping in like thoughts of death
The smell of burnt aluminum
Fills the air
The flick of a lighter
Faintly I hear
I'm hungry
But I'm not sure you care
I'll just sit in my corner
avoiding my fear
Every word I think I can say
Is never enough
to cut through the smoke
Thinking I can run away
But it is never enough to cope
Even tomorrows do not promise love
I don't know who you really are
I hold my hands to the lord above
But even he can't save my heart
