Axe Fight
by: DefenestrationWhy does it take so long for me, to get through to you?
What if I break before
Before you see what you put me through
I've found one way
That I can tell you louder than any other way
Want you to listen, if you can?
To things that I say?
Though this is like everything, everything can die
I'm trying to make you see, but you can't see at this time
I'm here, can't you hear?
Decisions are made without, I feel left out of this
Hang on! or I'm gone
In a hole, bare my soul
Breaking my back to thrill
I'm older, you're colder
There's no more time to kill
No problem we'll take the world, make the world our way
