Perish the Thought

Dirty hands and wasted time
Got a needle that dives into a mind that's like mine
Only a minute but it feels like a year
As the laughter fades away
I can see every chance that I've had before the melody soured
And the rhythm went bad
Stare at the ceiling while I'm lying in bed
Trying to find the words to say

So little reason to the rhyme, Just give it some time
But the thought won't leave me alone

What are the reasons? Maybe who is to blame?
I don't know how it went wrong but it just ain't the same
Did I ever really have it all, or was there nothing there to lose?
Hardest decisions and the deepest of fears
I don't know where I belong but I just know it ain't here
You wanna talk? Then take a walk in my shoes
Save your venom and judgment for the sad little life that you choose

Is this the way it ends? I guess that depends

The haunted soul in me is out there looking for blood
Or the means to set me free of a life in the dirt and the mud
That clouds my every thought... and my every dream

And the thought won't leave me alone
