When graying matter can't heal the heart's soul
Uncapped chit chat voids the hole
I can't believe I never told
With all these words I've bought and....made
Turned to ink unread and fake
Unheard, undone, best left, unsaid
In-un, date me, with then, the end
     
     Enough past is present, enduring everlasting impatience
     with everything I claim I know

It's a funny thought
I keep thinking you're the lucky one
Got out by the skin of your teeth
10 less minutes asleep and who knows?
I guess we'll never see...

And all I want to do is SCREAM
But I can't evict it out, it seems
Stuck at the edge of my throat

So what do you say we cut it open and bleed it out?
Let it pool and take a dip
Soak our hands and splash about

Then drown ourselves off the deep end

Chin deep in self doubt pretending everything I thought forgotten
Creeps like a cancer unchecked and rotting
It's breaking my neck with all this weight I can't shoulder
I should have just fuckin' told her

When I had the chance

                                     Now.

     Enough past is present, enduring everlasting impatience
     with all this goddamn pressure blowing me every which
     way but left slamming into my chest with the force of
     my own fist one million miles per second

One million reasons to leave it be
Because no one hits me harder than me
When I'm thinking about you.
