Fake Blood

Bleed into yesterday, a scene in retrograde

Fake apologies will never clean the mess you made

Weathered down and spent, you trace around the dents

Scratch a message in the side to not resuscitate

Sullen eyes, your skies are empty, there's no saving you

Life and death between your breath and barely breaking through

So precariously teetering between while in the waiting room

Praying for relief to

Break the skin and suffocate the pain

The seconds stretches into days

Fake blood is flowing through

Fake blood is flowing through your veins

You want a second chance, extend an olive branch

Holding grudges like the gun that's in your other hand

Leave you in the past, the point of where you're at

Is one-dimensional, left up to circumstance

Trust is fraying at the ends, it's nothing new to me

Start to pick apart the husk of who you used to be

Rose-colored glasses reading off a teleprompter

Like a eulogy, collected and fluently

Debased and faceless

Fade and corrode

Sway back and forth

Forget that you're broken

Bleed into yesterday, a scene in retrograde

Fake apologies

Break the skin and suffocate the pain

The seconds stretches into days

Fake blood is flowing through

Fake blood is flowing through

Fake blood is flowing through your veins
