Time Bomb

"Time Bomb" ''Second track from Cane Hill Second single, released August 11th, 2015''

''“Woof that was a long time ago. I wrote those lyrics when I was in college and I was still a huge fuck up. I’m pretty sure I was just constantly on edge trying to manage my collegiate life, band life, and party life all at once and I definitely was letting college and band slip. I felt pressure from everything and everyone around me and just wanted to fucking drop down and stop everything I was doing.”'' - vocalist Elijah Witt -

Woke up today, with the sun on my face I tried to pray, but I hated the taste Sped off to work like a rat in a race Cut up a smile, but it's not on my face Tick, tick, tick, tick, boom!

I'm a time bomb, just set me off! My sanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Boom! I'm a time bomb, ready to bleed! Humanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Break!

I lace my teeth with gold they're rotting from the inside Bury me seven feet deep, closer to my misery No air to breathe, no room to think! (Why don't you) bury me seven fucking feet deep?! I think I'm okay, I think I'm okay I think I'm okay, I think I'm okay But don't you fucking touch me I think I'm okay, I think I'm okay I won't be okay Tick, tick, tick, tick, boom!

I'm a time bomb, just set me off! My sanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Boom! I'm a time bomb, ready to bleed! Humanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Break!

I'm not a martyr, I'm just a fiend So take a step back, take a step back Can you see me smiling while I'm hiding in your back seat? Bury me seven feet deep, closer to my misery No air to breathe, no room to think (Why don't you) bury me seven fucking feet deep?!

Maybe my day will come Running waters never brought me to where I belong (And now I'm blind, god I'm so blind) My suicide was labeled as a common dose of cyanide Tick, tick, boom!

I'm a time bomb, just set me off! My sanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2- Boom! I'm a time bomb, ready to bleed! Humanity is failing me. 5-4-3-2-Break!

Bury me seven feet deep!
