I dream of a day of reckoning even if it's the end
Through red I see that moment of confrontation that I long for
I dream of a day of reckoning even if it's the end
Through red I see that moment of confrontation that I long for
Harness that impulse of despair
Even if that's the only thing keeping the hands ticking forward in time
Contrive anger
A conduit
To propel me far from the origin
Coalesce a purpose
We're all running out of time
I've found a deep sense of shame for the ways that I've burned all of these years of my life
Ungrateful
Running out of time
Running out of time
I have to act now
I must prove
I have to act now
I must prove
The sense of urgency
Beating heart that's displaced
Surrounds
The sense of urgency
Finds me here
Waiting for the panic to subside and the breath to finally steady on
Lower your head and avert your gaze
Breathe through it and cross the days off
Time is the only salvation
So wrap yourself in it and let it be your barrier
Lower your head and avert your gaze
There's enough resilience behind my eyes
To last me to the sunrise
Time is the barrier that keeps me from the midnight
Running out of time
Running out of time
I have to act now
I must prove
I have to act now
I must prove
The sense of urgency
Beating heart that's displaced
Surrounds
The sense of urgency finds me here
Waiting for the panic to subside and the breath to finally steady on
