Counting Down

Slow down this is already more than I

Could have been prepared for

Even though I knew it all along

No matter how deep I look into your eyes I know it

Will end before you're out the door

I should have noticed your heart beat

drifting out of time from mine

you're holding your tongue

now I'm swallowing my words

& I can't keep them down

feels more like razors coming up

Rolling over, too many miles wore you out

Undercover, reach in your heart to tear mine out

You were wrong to say that you gave it a chance

You were always counting down

Remind me of the last log you threw onto the fire

Before you let it fizzle out

Sometimes, I ask myself

Why I'm the only one refilling

Another battery run dry
