Seconds - October Tide

Merciless

My pulse counts it down

The triviality of our intentions

Curtains are closing

Draped in demise

Trying to find it

Our light

This is the implicit picture

The picture of hope abandoning me

By carving the torment within

Seconds

Do you see how long they last?

Now they’re gone

To be worth my time

Nothing before, nothing after

A lifetime spent together

(Tell me)

Makes our faces become the same

(Was it worth it?)

Help me change its meaning

By carving the silence of torment within

The joy of life

We’re aching to feel

But the world won’t let us

Seducing the shame

Crumble the wretched

Will you remember my name?

A lifetimes spent together

Makes our faces become the same

Help me change its meaning

By carving the silence of torment within

Wish there was another way

(Tell me)

But the fire keeps boiling, beckon me

(Was it worth it?)

Pour cold water in your blood

You tell me, was it worth it?

The world doesn’t care about me

I don’t care, I won’t let it

Seconds

Do you see how long they last?

Now they’re gone

Curtains are closing

Draped in demise

Trying to find it

Our light

Carving the torment within
