Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's here again, knees tremble
Been too long since last time
And I don't look forward to it
Went to extremes to avert it
All my plans, precautions, tricks
Fell apart from just a wind blow
Can hardly move, I'm fragile
Can't they see it's not fine
Show them signs but there's no action
It takes it's time, no form yet
Seconds flow slow like sweat
On my frame, a nervous breakdown
[Chorus]
Robbed of time, I did no crime
Yet I can't leave this room
Soon, we know you'll fade away
So why do you insist?
[Verse 2]
My guard is down, I'm helpless
It attacks my senses and I feel
Lost in scorching deserts
Clocks molten, time is no more
I can't see no shape or shadow
Across the peanut skyline
Feet trapped in sand, slow sinking
As its crows rip my throat
And my faint breath barely keeps me alive
Still in a fog, still shaking
Searching for a drop of water
My mouth more dry than these grounds
