There's a pressure crawling beneath my skin, gripping at my heart
A tightening in my chest threatening to tear into me and rip me apart
Drowning above water beneath a flow of blood
Suffocating from the chamber representing love
I wait it out, I count the seconds that forget about me
The clock is breaking down and time will soon stop for me
Frozen in a moment as voices fade and my vision blurs
Light turns black and pain no longer hurts
Am I dying? Or am I already gone?
All I can hear is the clock's broken song
Delicately soothing me with Death's Lullaby
But no, this is not my final goodbye
The darkness in my veins recedes and lies dormant
Counting down the hours to relive in my torment
I gasp for air and take in my first breath
Falling away from the broken cradle of death
My eyes open and the ticking clock fades away
Like echoing foot steps and the pain begins to decay
