implosion

life is ticking away
days seem mad and pale
i lost the will to pray
i want off of this jail

i search deep inside
for what keeps me here
some kind of guide
or beacon which to steer

but i find nothing
and that's why

i'm getting ready to implode
dissolve what's beneath my skin
go into self-destructing mode
and wash away all the sin

give in to the appeal
drive me to the edge
my soul you'll steal
once i step off that ledge

something stops me
and with surprising silence
keeps smothering what i see
bottling my violence

i never found anything
and that's why

i'm getting ready to implode
dissolve what's beneath my skin
go into self-destructing mode
to change the state i'm in

it won't hurt a thing
so that's why

i'm getting ready to implode
dissolve what's beneath my skin
go into self-destructing mode
give me that sweet n' sour grin
