the escape artist

[retread]

white knuckled
gripping the arms of a chair
room won't quit spinning
gasping for air

pull the hammer back
let the hammer fall
blink of an eye
lets end it all

this is love
this is pain
in the end
they're one and the same

stabbed once again
words craft the blade
feel it slide in
the point well made

so pull your hammer back
let that hammer fall
span of a single breath
will end it all

six feet deep
don't feel the same
there's no more love
there's no more pain.
