I am standing on the precipice of time

Reassured we’ll all be fine

Always told to tow the line

As I’m draining all the blood from every stone

Every inch another moan

Finding pain a private home

It’s so amazing

How these days they never end

How a vice becomes a friend

How the broken never mend

It’s so draining, but someday I’d love to know

The grand finale of the show

Make it count before we go

It’s coming down to the wire

No more help is on the line

I am waiting for the ground to finally thaw

Reveal the gifts we never saw

Remain perpetually in awe

I am diving into every void there is in sight

To only fill them out of spite

It isn’t wrong, it isn’t right

Light is fading slowly

As we drift for foreign shores

As if we’re driven out by wars

As if your home’s no longer yours

It’s only waiting to re-emerge

As someone new

To rearrange my world view

Explore every avenue

It’s coming down to the wire

No more help is on the line
