Rising Tide

Feeling myself wanting to die, it just doesn't make sense.
Trying to hide in myself, building an encompassing fence.

The minutes are ticking by, each feels like an hour.
Just hoping in my mind that love can hold its power.

Because can't you see the sparkle in my eyes is fading.
Moving towards a mysterious fate, standing in the dark just waiting.

My hands are bloodstained by the razor at my side
I'm always running from this rising tide.

I'm afraid of being swallowed up and heading down the wrong path
Not thinking for the moment causing a devastating aftermath

The worst thing is I know I love the blood
And I'm spinning in circles, I'm stuck in the mud

Can you feel my heart beating in my chest?
Can you see that this time I'm crashing, it's different from the rest

It's so hard to see the truth buried under the lies
It's so hard to find why after so many tries

The rain is falling outside my window it's the only sound I hear
And I'm wishing so much that you were lying near

But knowing you're not...
