Untitled #01

So this is it, I can't blame it on you
You did everything that you could do
I'm so addicted to the feeling of rain
Soaking me to death, wash away my pain
And I will always run towards the storm
Anything that will keep me from the norm
I choose this life I lead, it's time to man up
Like a bottle of champagne waiting to erupt

Time has always been my enemy
The face of the clock always laughing at me
I'm the tortoise, and I'm falling behind
But the story says that victory will soon be mine
I see smiles in the photos, but none in the mirror
My teeth are rotten and I don't shed a tear
I made this face no matter what they say
Because tomorrow will always be a brand new day

I gave it all, I lost it all, but I have no excuse
It's been a long time since I untied this noose
And now I see the error of my ways
If I regret them then I will be the waste
So take my hand and we'll both sleep on a cloud
Here on this Earth where we shed all our doubts
And when it rains our sins will be rinsed clean
For now our world is just a den of relief
