Sacred Lyrics

I used to feel safe,
Oblivious to the mess I left in my wake.
Now I try to give more than I take.

But there s more at stake
Than the nights I spent awake.
It turns out I ve got a selfish streak,
And I repeat the same mistakes.

Seconds, hours, minutes, days.
I feel it slip, slipping away.

Did I mention that I m fucking scared?
I can feel the decay,
But I can t say it caught me unawares.
New bruises, new pills.
Fate will not fight fair;
The clock will not stand still.
Ask me why & I ll spit in your eye.
We re all still ill.

Today I felt the time slipping away.
