Swimming with piranhas in my gut   Feeding on the hand that waves good night   For I am also what I have lost   And I have it all except mercy      So I wait in line   And I wait my turn in line   You're getting away   You're slipping away from me   And I know that soon   You will be out of my hands      Be assured we will not be ashamed   For a second there it all made sense   Standing naked so that they can see   All the scars inflicted   By the blade of my dreams      And I know that soon you will be happy again.      In my defense I never promised you the world   In my birth marks I've begun to decode my fate   I read the signs but got caught out by the hidden clues   Another second too late
