Haze

I feel my life slipping through my fingers
I see my mind fogging up like a warm breath on a cold mirror
Slow down, somehow
Slow down - wait

I feel my life slipping through my fingers
I hear my heart beating fast like a bird flying south for the winter
Slow down, somehow
Slow down - wait in the haze

I feel my life slipping through my fingers
I taste my fate, bittersweet, like a love lost when I don't miss her
Slow down, somehow
Slow down - wait

I feel my life slipping through my fingers
I smell the end getting close like a bonfire down to the cinders
Slow down, somehow
Slow down - wait in the flames

Put all my excuses aside
I'm waiting for nothing
In haze from the fire
Lost all my innocence in time
I'm waiting for nothing
In haze from the fire

I feel my life slipping through my fingers
I chased the snake to the gates of Hades
...hook, line and sinker.

I feel my life slipping through my fingers
I fade away in the haze, buried alive by splinters
Slow down, somehow
Slow down - wait in the haze
