COUNTDOWN

My chest is a locked room
Where the air finds no way out
Every second strikes like a hammer
Against the walls of the wound

It's not the world that's falling
It's my body that can't hold on
Time is screaming in my ears
A race that never let's up

Countdown
Never reaching zero
My heart's a broken clock
Counting out the fear
Countdown
Trapped inside my chest
I breathe in shattered pieces
What's left is what's done

The city's clocks all agree
On a time that isn't mine
While I'm drowning in seconds
The world moves on, blind to the dark

There's no way out, only the door I locked myself
Every breath, a war I never chose

Countdown
Never reaching zero
My heart's a broken clock
Counting out the fear
Countdown
Trapped inside my chest
I breathe in shattered pieces
What's left is what's done

And the clock keeps going
Even without me
