There I was, laid out on a table
Screaming sweat and bare feet to the floor
In my life, I'd not soften
Things that cut, and burn so often
But I sit, think of something
Scared to face, the dying nothing
See the cycle I've waited for
It ain't like that anymore
Where I go is when I feel I'm able
How I fight is why I'm feeling sore
In my mind, not forgotten
Feel as though, a tooth were rotten
Behind the smile, a tongue that's slipping
Buzzards cry, when flesh is ripping
See the cycle I've waited for
It ain't like that anymore
Here I sit writing on the paper
Trying to make the words you can't ignore
In my eyes, what I'm lacking
Score at face, a ten for slacking
Sign the deal, set in motion
Smaller fish, so huge the ocean
See the cycle I've waited for
It ain't like that anymore
See the cycle I've waited for
It ain't like that anymore.
