Murderous

On an island I am lost
Mindless and distraught
Trying to link the dots, but I'm sure of nothing

All the words have been embossed
Of the lines I thought were lost
The knife relieves the clot
And the blood is flowing far too fast
And I don't know if this heart will last

The world has caught on fire
And I predict that our future might be lost
As the clock's become murderous

Lower, lower to the ground
Try not to be found
Close my eyes and count to a new beginning

They impress and they astound
Breathe without a sound
Surrender to the hounds
As the teeth are sinking in so deep
And now my heart is falling weak

The world has caught on fire
And I predict that our future might be lost
As the clock's become murderous

Television creatures seep into the scene
Making deep incisions in between the seams
Don't stop running, they won't stop coming
In droves and dozens until the morning comes

I'm furious 'cause now the clock's become murderous
Now the clock's become murderous

Now we've all become cornered by the fire
As I predict that our future might be lost
Now the clock's become murderous
Now the clock's become murderous
Now the clock's become murderous
