Swimming with piranhas in my gut

Feeding on the hand that waves good night

For I am also what I have lost

And I have it all except mercy



So I wait in line

And I wait my turn in line

You're getting away

You're slipping away from me

And I know that soon

You will be out of my hands



Be assured we will not be ashamed

For a second there it all made sense

Standing naked so that they can see

All the scars inflicted

By the blade of my dreams



And I know that soon you will be happy again.



In my defense I never promised you the world

In my birth marks I've begun to decode my fate

I read the signs but got caught out by the hidden clues

Another second too late
