It Was over in a Matter of Seconds - Mugen Styles

It was over in a matter of seconds

Cause when the blade rises

There’s no fight to be denied

Just swift movements

But even quicker thinking

Just trust in your reactions

And a pain in your heart

When disaster strikes

I strike it back

I am the shield, the weapon

Rush ahead, voice clear

Iron will, give up?

Who can?

I stand my ground

I hold my stance

Bring it on, let 'em advance

Even reversed, back against a cliff

I risk my life, lift my sight

A veil exists amidst the righteous

Slipping, I’m falling away from the crowds

Long nights with more longing

Than how long a night could ever feel

Reinvented, I am the wheel

I’m on a roll

Once I start, I cannot stop

I’m out of control

I reel it back

I dial it in

I change myself

Replace my skin

Days in, days out

Think about this

Think about that

Push your thoughts inside my brain

Space to occupy

You sly little *beep*

You don’t even try

I was stuck on when

But you always knew why

In a bed of dead roses

Is where I was left to lie

A dead thorn’s still sharp to the touch

A bleeding heart doesn’t know not to pump

I was waiting on a new beginning

Endings everywhere had to start forgetting

Missing the point

Probably most

A ghost am I

Hardly show myself

Sew a shirt of uncertainty

I wear it well

Yeah I wear it well

Yeah I wear it well

Oh

It was over in a matter of seconds
