At Any Moment - Wax Idols

My body has its limits

These scattered bones

Pulled in all directions

It takes a toll

I tumble down your stairs

Like an avalanche without warning

Waiting for illumination

It never comes

Choking on the elevation

In my lungs

Elation, oh elation

How fickle you are in the morning

Didn’t I tell you this could die?

Didn’t I tell you?

Didn’t I?

Didn’t I say I could walk away at any moment?

This unrelenting shadow

Is casting doubt

It wants to carve me til I’m hollow

And snuff me out

It’s a damned if do, damned if I don’t

Ever-after

Your calamity seduced me

And kept me near

Wrapped in subtle forms of sorrow

And laced with fear

But I haven’t any room for more than

My own disaster

Didn’t I tell you this could die?

Didn’t I tell you?

Didn’t I?

Didn’t I say I could walk away at any moment?

You fool me once, you won’t fool me twice

I’m not a virgin on the altar of sacrifice

Didn’t I say I could away at any moment?
