Come the Dawn

My Body's Failing (The Undertaking)

Come the Dawn


I sit alone in this room
These walls stained with blood
The walls are crying and it's starting to get to me
I'm ticking like a bomb

My mind is failing
My sight is failing
My lungs are failing

My body is failing
My body is failing

With these broken legs I'll stand up and fight
Buried deep, a victim of my own mind
It's only a matter of time
I know that I'll be just fine

I'm fighting to save myself
I try to climb my way out
Of this abyss that I've let myself become
It's getting harder for me to breathe
I don't know if I continue to live
If I can learn from my mistakes
When will I be able to live?
I can't believe that I can be saved
Where is the person I used to be?

My mind is failing
My sight is failing
My lungs are failing

With these broken legs I'll stand up and fight
Buried deep, a victim of my own mind
It's only a matter of time
I know that I'll be just fine

Inside out and upside down
A million times I do this to myself
But I, I know this is a test of my will
I'm not letting it go until I'm okay with myself

I'm not okay with myself

With these broken legs I'll stand up and fight
Buried deep, a victim of my own mind
It's only a matter of time
I know that I'll be just fine

I'm fighting to save myself
I try to climb my way out
Of this abyss that I've let myself become
I'm not giving up
