The life you chose to raise

I paused, took a moment more
Formed the words in a phrase
I strained to hear, to see it clear
And watched the face rage at me
You caused this, more or less

It feels like a curse and you fear for the worst
What withers once is weak
You give up the fight when you fail to recite
The words you dare not speak
And you're running out of days
With the life you chose to raise

You paused, wished a moment more
With the life that you raise
You felt the fear and kept it near
And turned the face to rage at you
You caused this, more or less

It feels like a curse and you fear for the worst
What withers once is weak
You give up the fight when you fail to recite
The words you dare not speak
And you're running out of days
With the life you chose to raise

Rapid manic preacher says he's got a lifeline
Take a pill, take a plant at the right time
Don't think that that helps
Short or long the feature, doesn't last a lifetime
It isn't up, it isn't done, it's in the pipeline
Oh yeh, now that helps
You're the only one whose ever gonna get this done
Oh yeh, that's it, that helps, that works

It feels like a curse and you fear for the worst
What withers once is weak
You give up the fight when you fail to recite
The words you dare not speak
And you're running out of days
With the life you chose to raise
