#throw down

No, even as I’m dreaming

Hearing you cry my name again, taking all the blame again

Oh no, I killed my hesitation

Still it’s gasping from the ground, knowing every lie I spin, oh

Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, you know

Faces come and go but the truth won’t

Disappear if I give up now

Once those tears have passed, it’s the sole facts, it’s my last chance

Choose your life and live it, don’t quit it,

There’s nothing left to lose

Throw down

A piece of you, a piece of me, can connect

I know that you will live again

Throw down

Those words I never could unsay

I’ll lie for one more day

Until hope can grow up in its place

Throw down

That’s enough, that’s too far

Just can’t let down your heart, I know

Please don’t forgive my deeds

I see the end still waiting on for me

Throw down

Leaving lacerations

Painful words so simply said, pure white sleeves flow into red

Hey, you know that desperation

As I cut and carve and take, all of this is for your sake, oh

Day by day it’s gray left to savor

Watered down in a world without the flavor

I want nothing but what’s needed

Place by place just waste that I’m seeing, there’s no meaning

Yes or no just say it, or fake it,

It’s not the words you choose

Throw down

The meaning of each human life, every name

It’s never been an equal game

Throw down

And prune the value I decide

It starts to come alive

Til despair is bleeding on the knife

Who’s right can’t be one, it’s many, there’s a truth for every life we lead

The end is reaching its beginning, only then might my salvation come for me

Now gently let my eyes close, don’t forget my regret on show

And pray I may have saved a life I never could have known

Now no matter who comes in their place, it’s the same blank mask of a face

I still don’t have the answer, so I couldn’t even make myself afraid

Throw down

My morals, can I still believe?

Night makes way for morning, but my sins won’t leave

Throw down

These feelings burnt in monochrome

Long as I don’t let go,

Can I still pretend I’ll die in peace?

Throw down

A piece of you, a piece of me, can connect

I know that you will live again

Throw down

Those words I never could unsay

I’ll lie for one more day

Until hope can grow up in its place

Throw down

That’s enough, that’s too far

Just can’t let down your heart, I know

Please don’t forgive my deeds

I see the end still waiting on for me
