Stasis

How could I
Ever say goodbye
You'd think that I
Would let the past die

But

I've been running
I've been running
I've been running out of time all along

It's a constant war between head and heart
Make the plans but fail to start
I'm sick of ruminating
Contemplating
All these endings
But god
Every step I take
Always feels so vain
(I won't deny) the fear of change
(I won't deny) that it consumes me
I've seen my life fall out of place
Dominated by my mistakes

How is time
Still flowing on
I see your ghost
Still haunting

Trapped inside
My will is gone
I wish I could turn back time

I live within the lines
I blur the black and white
My blood, the ink in sight
Destroys my alibi

I'll break it down to see
What's become of me
A self made philosopher?
Masochistic cartographer?
Mapping the world as I see
Suffocating
Isolating
Lost my soul slowly fading
And we're the same you and me
The sun rises, sun sets
And we still wanna bleed

I wait to be forgotten
I'll show you what it's like
Survival of the shadows in the night
Just outside your frame of mind

How is time (How is time)
Still flowing on
I see your ghost
Still haunting

Trapped inside (Trapped inside)
My will is gone
I wish that I could just turn back time
