Faking My Own Death

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I just wanna say that I'm sorry in advance

Count on me like clockwork

It won't work

The only promise I can make

Is I'm changing all my plans

And you'll never see me again

I'm warning you it's over before it began

We're diving in headfirst, in reverse

You're swimming through my wake

And I'm slipping through your hands

And you'll never see me again

Typical, it's so cyclical

I got one foot out the door

But I don't fight it anymore

Don't hold your breath

I'm faking my own death

I'll drop a burning match

And burn bridge that takes me back

I'm putting it to rest

I'm faking my own death

Three years passes

And I'm rising from the ashes

I'm rising from the ashes

I'm stuck repeating history

And I just can't help myself

It's almost like I'm always someone else

There's nothing you could say to me

In sickness or in health

I hate it just as well

Typical, it's so cyclical

I got one foot out the door

But I don't fight it anymore

Don't hold your breath

I'm faking my own death

I'll drop a burning match

And burn the bridge that takes me back

I'm putting it to rest

I'm faking my own death

Three years passes

And I'm rising from the ashes

I'm rising from the ashes

I'm missing in action

Three years passing

Don't hold your breath

I'm faking my own death

I'll drop a burning match

And burn the bridge that takes me back

I'm putting it to rest

I'm faking my own death

Three years passes

And I'm rising from the ashes

I'm rising from the ashes
