Five Minutes to Midnight

five minutes to midnight every second’s like an hour behind these
walls in every attempt I try to make I’ve tried to
reach out but you let me down how can you be so certain?
in this moments of denial you think you know it all when venom runs
slowly through your veins redemption is waiting just down the hall
begin with the words that will suffice just give me a moment to
convince myself I like to pretend it’s just a game but the needle is
piercing inside my brain my patience’s
breaking my will will you come to rescue me?
when this five minutes creep under my apartment door I am flying low
to the ground with buildings scraping the clouds
when this five minutes creep under my apartment door
