Upon my decaying flesh, the red is coated

Various thoughts sealing my lips are loaded

Fists clutch, grasping every grain of sand

I've long to amputate the ticking clock's hand


Frustration has given me a shoulder to cry

Anxiety and regret stole the time I tried to buy

My nervous system is giving up on my acts

Control on my veins, my thirsty heart lacks


My name is carved onto a tablet of stone

Serenity begins to dwell within my bones

Entangled by this twisted fate since birth,

Nobody loosens the knots beneath the earth


I drag my paralyzed body along a pool of black

Unable am I to foresee this unforgiving fact

Ripples dance for my blood to gently stir in

The hollow face of death greets with a grin


Your forgiveness, I ask for a thousand times

But your murder melody blew my wind chimes

Slumber closes my bruised and weary eyes

Now, chains pull me down, below the skies
