The Dismemberment Plan - Time Bomb Lyrics

Well i, i am a time bomb and i, i lay forgotten at the bottom of your heart...
I'm fine, ticking away the hours to blow your world apart

I, i am a poison and i, i am still coursing through your bloodstream like
A ghost, like wine, gathering vintage for the day i hurt the most

I, i am a land mine and i, i lay on the soil burned out by battles you thought
You'd won, i've got time... to wait for the footsteps.. of a memory that's on
The run...yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Well i, i am a tar pit and i, i swell like a living thing all at the slightest
Touch.. a black grime, yeah, swallowing everything.. a cold and timeless clutch

I, well i am a trip wire, and i, i'm stretching across the road you're
Barreling down tonight...a thinish twine, waiting to be released right beyond
your sight

I, well i am a fault line and i, i'm pulling apart the ground that lay beneath
Your newest seed.. so fine, moving in inches now, I'm crawling, I'm cutting, I'm cleaving, like a knife.

Well i, i am a time bomb i only live in that one moment in which you die... its
Not right, its not what i wanted then but you know and i know there's no going
back

I, i am a lost soul and i, i send out a sickened light for anyone to see... a
Cry for help, yeah, a warning to stay away... the burning... the blinding...
The reaching in darkness...why, yeah, yeah
