Seconds Songtext

once ignored - now cherishedas they begin to tick awaypanting, like a dog in the windthroat constrictedha haswelling as a tumor - i can scarcely breathemy eyes stand in the wayto the world i need to seehazy melting images coated in gluebegin sliding from my viewand i trample on top of themnow a blind fooloh my heavy aching legscannot do the work of ten mento lift my feet of stoneclumsy, my armslong and leaden - they drag behind mecarving deep trenches in the rotting earthoh so tightenedstretched beyond beliefmy skin crackswith the weight of my dying bodyand the rage inside my headblood trickles down from my burning eyesand stings my charred lipsoh dear god - if you would but save me!so much as a finger on my handsurely i could climbatop a cloud in your skyand echo your praisesinto the light of a new daybut my words are lostas my bonessnap suddenlyand i am left to lie upon the burning remnants of my lifesecondseternitythe clock ceases inside of meoh this silence, this emptiness insidefor the grinding of my teeth at the searing painof my flesh and the stench which infiltrates my every poresilenceeternitymight as well relaxit's much too lateto cancelall my reservations in hell
