11. USELESS
This is my
Amazing demise,
The greatest show
On the planet.
Come see me die
Before your eyes
Stop taking death
For granted.
Hands on the clock
Burn short like fuses
Around the screw
Sinking with revolutions
Into my cracking
And splintering skull
Draining my soul
Until I'm useless.
I walk this burning tight rope
Losing my balance, losing my hope
High above a net on fire.
I do my act. The flames get higher.
Come one, come all!
Come watch me fall.
This is my
Amazing demise,
The greatest show
On the planet.
Come see me die
Before your eyes
Stop taking death
For granted.
Hands on the clock
Burn short like fuses
Around the screw
Sinking with revolutions
Into my cracking
And splintering skull
Draining my soul
Until I'm useless.
And as I fall before the crowd with style
All the watchers going wild
I know my time is running out.
Take me down.
I'm scared and not prepared
To die like this,
A bottomless abyss.
I can't control my fate,
And I'm not going to wait around.
This is the last sound
That you'll hear from me.
I'm popping my already leaking balloon
To wake the world up.
To wake the world up.
This is my
Amazing demise,
The greatest show
On the planet.
Come see me die
Before your eyes
Stop taking death
For granted.
Hands on the clock
Burn short like fuses
Around the screw
Sinking with revolutions
Into my cracking
And splintering skull
Draining my soul
Until I'm useless.
You can hold your dying breath.
Don't utter a word.
Keep fighting your death,
And never be heard.
Come one, come all!
Come watch me fall.more
