You'll Know Me When I'm Gone

When the clock ticks slowly, on the calmest single day
I galvanise my sense of touché
I realise that we've all been lying, joking
Drinking, smoking
It never bored us out but we're poisoned all the same

I summarise my thoughts in a nutshell
This nutshell is not egotistical
I am writing with an anvil weight
A chain attached to the ball

I hydrate your brain
And cushion your relapse
I drain the venom from an open wound
And as we confront these emotions together, on and on
You'll know me when I'm gone

I concentrate your ambitions put to one side
And channel them to a frequency
I am the check, check mate to your every movement
With consistency I arise

You'll notice the cameo
And it's very importance
To battle priceless shame
And raise the status of your fame

I hydrate your brain
And cushion your relapse
I drain the venom from an open wound
And as we confront these emotions together, on and on
You'll know me when I'm gone

I hydrate your brain
And cushion your relapse
I drain the venom from an open wound
And as we confront these emotions together, on and on
You'll know me when I'm gone
I focus your pain, and catch on your collapse
I am the pin to your every groove
And as we pretend that we are one soul forever, on and on
You'll know me when I'm gone
