The Drifter

As Leeches crawl down my throat
And through my insides
They will devour me
They are defining me
I've been waiting for this
I cant shake the fever
I am trembling
I am the ghost.
Misleading and deceived
Weary and defeated
Lets us toast to the end of all days
Farewell to all my friends.
I've done no good I saw this coming
Predicted a free fall to perpetual dismay
I have discovered the meaning
I should have seen this
Have seen this this coming
This is why the story never ends.
Oh drifter, come closer
You're half way home
Don't be afraid of this your body begs for it
Oh drifter (falling faster)
Oh drifter blessing or burden
Oh drifter (deteriorating)
Oh drifter this is the end
I know this is...
Where I belong.
As it comes closer whispering secrets
(keeping me sweating)
Ill be sure to say my goodbyes
And spare you all the sighs
There will be lessons to learn
And bridges will burn
Oh drifter, drifting away
As dreamers they stay.
I'm sleeping in disbelief
Afraid of the day
Cease the dream
This is why the story never ends.
Oh drifter, come closer
You're half way home
Don't be afraid of this your body begs for it.
(Oh drifter)
Oh drifter, come closer
You're half way home
Don't be afraid of this your body begs for it.
This is it, this is it
You're the one who asked for this
This is it, this is it
No more regrets you've spent you're last wish
One last night in this hell of home
One last breathe as I relive my sins.
