Imprints

Hands of hesitation intersect and leave me dead
 Sharpening their edges inches from my neck
 Inhaling the uncertainty that hangs above my head
 With portraits of my death carved into my chest
 Running without feeling in our legs
 We don't appreciate the cuts that we've collected
 (Drifting through a swarm of thorns)
 As our agony reminds us these scars were self-inflicted
 I'll give you every second 'til I'm gone
 I hate it here and never want to leave
 I hoped this flame would burn forever
 I'll give you every second 'til I'm gone ('til I'm gone)
 Staring in the face of my own fate
 I hate it here and never want to leave (and never want to leave)
 The imprints I have left will surely fade
 But the memories remind us we shared the same pain
 I'll give you every second 'til I'm gone
 I hate it here and never want to leave
 I hoped this flame would burn forever
 I'll give you every second 'til I'm gone ('til I'm gone)
 Staring in the face of my own fate
 I hate it here and never want to leave
 (I will incinerate myself in my own circle of Hell)
 (A blind world won't read my lips)
 (Though it might hear) my faint farewell
 I will incinerate myself in my own circle of Hell
 A blind world won't read my lips
 Though it might hear my faint farewell
 All living things will starve cradled in complacency
 Content inside the coffin I've created
 I hate it here and never want to leave
