Time Bomb

Well, I
I am a time bomb, and I
I lay forgotten at the bottom of your heart
I'm fine
Ticking away the hours til' I blow your world apart

I, I am a poison, and I
I am still coursing through your bloodstream like a ghost
Like wine
Gathering vintage til' the day I hurt the most
I
I am a landmine, and I
I lay on the soil burned out by battles you thought you'd won
I've got time
To wait for the footsteps of a memory that's on the run
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Well, I
I am a tarpit, and I
I swell like a living thing, oh, at the slightest touch, a black grime
Swallowing everything in a cold and timeless clutch
I
I am a trip wire, and I
I'm stretching across the road you're barreling down tonight
The thinnest twine
Waiting to be released right beyond your sight
I, I am a fault line, and I
I'm pulling apart the ground that lay beyond your newest scene, so fine
Moving in inches now, a'crawling, a'cutting, a'cleaving
Like a knife

Well, I
I am a time bomb, and I
I only live in that one moment in which you die
And it's not right
It's not what I wanted then
But you know and I know there's no going back
I, I am a lost soul, and I
I send out a sickened light up for anyone to see
A cry for help
Yeah, a warning to stay away
A burning, a blinding, a bleaching, a death mask white
Yeah
