The Fuse that Burned Too Fast

I wake
I drive
I seal the anger inside
Everyday, a little more
Building on what was before
Come and go, one to know
Red Eyes
Everywhere I go
I see him staring back at me
And I can see his Red Eyes sending painwaves
Crushing me, crushing me, rushing blood into my head
It all builds in time
A bomb set and primed
Supported by a weak man’s pride
Try my best to not react
Need something to help distract
My mind
But it will return
Drawling down my spine
The fires blazing underneath
With razor teeth bite, sinking, holding, locking
Onto me, onto me, rushing blood into my head
I know I have nothing to gain
And everything to lose
This town has got the worst of me
I don’t care!
Enraging, fury unfolding, taking over
He always gets the worst of me — I don’t care
My rage builds inside
I’m losing my mind
When I see those
Red Eyes!
Everyday, a little more
Building on what was before
Come and go, one to know
RED EYES!
Everything I see
Reminds me of what was before
I can’t ignore his Red Eyes sending painwaves
Crushing me, crushing me, rushing blood into my head
His Red Eyes
Are all I see
Enraging me
Fury unfolding
Why can’t I ever be free?
Run — he chases me
Hide — he finds me
Fight — defeats me, hits me, beats me
Run — he’s faster
Hide — he’s there
Haunting me forever, evermore
