Lighting the Fuses

Life a ticking time bomb
I keep the lights on
I'm scared up in my room just waiting for the new dawn
What I cannot seem to do
Spark and light the fuse
Will I ever go through
(Not a chance fella)

Aye what do you know
That's another day awake
In this life of mine, that's another day at stake
Funny thing about it though
Most of my peers, they must think that's it's fake
Or at least I hope that's the case
Cause if they bumping this shit and they ain't going to help boy I'll never be leaving this cage
Yuh
Who am I kidding though
Acting like there's a point in living though
Why am I here
Well only God knows
This my shit and I'll own it
Telling the truth though
Being the lonely soldier in this war
Well that is one hell of a role
And these days I sleep the hours away
Escape to my dreams
It's the only part of my mind I can take
I know deep down that I'm losing my way
But that's been lost for some time
Many a year have passed by
I be scolded for reading the script
Huh
Guess I must've read the wrong line

Why do I talk
Why do I walk
Why do I try and act like anybody cares
Maybe they think I am unaware
Grain of sand on earth I do not matter
I see right through your façade keep up the chatter
Stroodle shut up
Okay
Stroodle shut up
Okay whatever
How dare you make me think that you was a goner
You ain't ever met no grief in your life
No
Met no strife in your life
No
Better be taking some pride in your life
You way too strong to be losing the fight
Am I strong though
I don't think so
Fragile fortress I'm a house made out of windows
And yet people still fail to see
What's the end for me
I'll never be happy
No

Life a ticking time bomb
I keep the lights on
I'm scared up in my room just waiting for the new dawn
What I cannot seem to do
Spark and light the fuse
Will I ever go through?
(Not a chance fella)

Life a ticking time bomb
I keep the lights on
I'm scared up in my room just waiting for the new dawn
What I cannot seem to do
Spark and light the fuse
Will I ever go through?
(Not a chance fella)
