Sing

Regulation, replaying inside my mind,
just like that night you let out a soft sigh,
crushed the bones in my hand and sent me away,
I saw the grin that was printed upon your face,
like a postcard for destruction,
watch me walk into the flames,
go ahead and incinerate, im to blame,
the cliff drop is long and slow,
waiting to hit the bottom of the destructive floor,
nose is burning and my throat is sore,
head is spinning wanting more,
you cant leave me like this,
you've done too much damage,
make me forget what its like to be content,
the crowd gathers round to watch me sink,
and if we really do part into two,
what will be left of me without you,
liquor cabinet leaves me plastered to the floor,
look out the window and what do you see,
a small bird that knows how to sing,
thoughts now racing wanting to understand,
how such a thing could know it all,
take me to a place where white walls surround,
let me scream and not make a sound,

burn it down

And when it all comes crashing down.. who will be there to catch you?
yourself that's who. so keep your arms straight out and your hands flat so you have the power to push yourself back up to your feet.
