Driven toward the break though
That is all you fear
Attracted to the flame just like
The moth that flies so near
Held down by the gaze of headlights
Frozen eye can't break the grip
Like the faucet in your kitchen
A constant drip drip drip
Dripping of the sweat as it slides
Down your back like a second spine
And how it drives you to the ground
While your eyes they shine and shine
You think that you can't take it
Then you ask for more
As if you were a whale the first
To crash upon the shore
Can you climb that rock it doesn't
Matter I must try
Can I swim that river do I
Talk do I fly?
But all along the nagging goes the
Fear it won't subside
And it eats you as you roar and choke
Smashing free and still you're tied
Your stomach falls your head goes blank
You're stopped and in fifth gear
Your thoughts are jumbled all sky-high
Yet everything is clear
I am this awful thing that's happened
I am a bad thing that you save
Yet you smell it and you taste it
The dilemma that you crave
