My timeline is a wire wrapped tight around my neck
Slowly apathy swells, give in to disconnect
Unworldly transmission fed to relive the shame
I don't want a trial, I'll take all the blame
A stone stolid council speaks dogmatically
Bullets and anecdotes divided evenly
A chilling consciousness wakes me from the trance
It redefines my mind, I'll never have a chance
Nothing, giving, unworthy offering
Losing feeling like a bird with clipped wings
Sinking feeling, pushing down on me
Swimming, drowning, neurotoxic red sea
A blow shatters my remission
Fractured patterns show through my skin
Please understand, this was not my plan
No, I've gotta know
Does it matter where my heart's been?
Fractured patterns show through my skin
Please understand this was not my plan
No, I've gotta go
Weightless restraint floating away, evaporating
The impulse grows in clouds below, cascading
Dripping whisper, falling faster, raining
raining
raining
Raining
A blow shatters my remission
Fractured patterns show through my skin
Please understand, this was not my plan
No, I've gotta know
Does it matter where my heart's been?
Fractured patterns show through my skin
Please understand this was not my plan
No, I've gotta go...
(Losing feeling like a bird with clipped wings
Sinking feeling, pushing down on me
Swimming, drowning, neurotoxic red sea
Does it matter where my heart's been?
Losing feeling like a bird with clipped wings
Sinking feeling, pushing down on me
Swimming, drowning, neurotoxic red sea)
