Shallow breaths, leaking sweat glands Time downshifts, speaking becomes a chore, Larynx quivering violently Swaying side by side, dancing aimlessly You zealously prepared for this, But dreadful emptiness fills you Pride spilling, eager to drive your head into necropolis Anxious to belong with putrefying corpses Wishing the heavens will take you back, But Hell chars you out of your misery It's like begging spilt milk To flow back into its broken glass You stand here now, so jump the gun Dive into the abyss, defuse the ticking bomb The chicken will be dressed anyway Might as well rise to the occasion Lift the curse of silence Say it, say what you're unable to say Fumble speaking, but speak anyway Say it even if it doesn't make sense Sing, and descend with the sunset
