i hear that time waits for noone
im counting the years
you can prop yourself up
but theres no getting out of this city
its falling

im down and out
youre the last thing im afraid of
keeping myself at home
i sure have shown
a way to be alive

im pacing
backwards and forwards across this empty room
we did this to ourselves
we're building our own demise

and i still hear the sirens leaving me behind
i cant accept the slow reality of losing my mind

in the night
youre the last mistake ill make up
keeping my options short
my last resort is taking peoples lives

and i still hear the sirens leaving me behind
i cant accept the slow reality of losing my mind
but if im never heard from again i dont care
ive learnt how to survive
amongst the dead i truly find myself
im fighting for life

silence screams
silent screams
