Time Bomb - The Dismemberment Plan

Well I, I am a time bomb and I, I lay forgotten at the bottom of your heart…

I’m fine, ticking away the hours to blow your world apart

I, I am a poison and I, I am still coursing through your bloodstream like

A ghost, like wine, gathering vintage for the day I hurt the most

I, I am a land mine and I, I lay on the soil burned out by battles you thought

You’d won, I’ve got time… to wait for the footsteps.

of a memory that’s on The run… yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Well I, I am a tar pit and I, I swell like a living thing all at the slightest

Touch.

a black grime, yeah, swallowing everything.

a cold and timeless clutch

I, well I am a trip wire, and I, I’m stretching across the road you’re

Barreling down tonight… a thinish twine, waiting to be released right beyond

Your sight

I, well I am a fault line and I, I’m pulling apart the ground that lay beneath

Your newest seed.

so fine, moving in inches now, I’m crawling, I’m cutting,

I’m cleaving, like a knife.

Well I, I am a time bomb I only live in that one moment in which you die… it’s

Not right, it’s not what I wanted then but you know and I know there’s no going

Back

I, I am a lost soul and I, I send out a sickened light for anyone to see… a Cry for help, yeah, a warning to stay away… the burning… the blinding…

The reaching in darkness… why, yeah, yeah
