Before I Turn
Crux
[Verse 1]
I wake up and I'm sitting upon the edge of a chair with no light to shine
My  eyes adjust to the darkness and feel for a sign
My  arms are locked in close and I can't feel a thing
I clench my jaw till my face starts to sting
(Decisions, decisions, you've got one more to make)
(Just  one more life for you to selfishly take)
I'm  just an empty host, watch as I fall (I fall)
She's just a vixen, conning me to end it all


[Chorus]
Take  me, leave me out to dry
Be my aggressor, tell me not to cry
Heaven turn me into a thrall
Give me the courage to end it all

[Verse 2]
Time  begins to haunt me as I focus on, the depths of the click
The clock hands wrap around my neck
To show me all, the pain I inflict
Please tell me if you lived
Would you say that it's true?
Would you still love me as the mother
Or the lover I once knew?
[Bridge]
She's just too real to me
She's just a fucking dream
She rests, inside of my mouth
And makes me bite my tongue, the blood comes rushing out
Draining, draining, the blood drains away
Dying, dying, I'm dying today

[Pre-Chorus]
Feeling, feeling, I'm feeling alive
Devil, devil, I give you my life

[Chorus]
Take me, leave me out to dry
Be my aggressor, tell me not to cry
Heaven turn me into a thrall
Give me the courage to end it all
Take me, leave me out to dry
Be my aggressor, tell me not to cry
Heaven turn me into a thrall
Give me the courage to end it all

[Outro]
(Darkness overtakes the room)
(No sight, no sound, nobody)
(As I perspire I feel the cold chill of sweat slide down my body slicing me like a frozen blade)
(The room, although enclosed gains the presence of a frigid wind nearing me)
(It's grim, it's deathly, it's beautiful)
(My tongue rests between my teeth as I hesitate to lock my jaw shut)
(The frigid presence wraps around me like motherly apathy)
(Clench your jaw shut, it will all be over soon)
(No more pain, no more agony)
(No more living with the immense guilt, that I have inflicted on you)
(Do it my son, I swear that you'll die)
