Choke

Every glimpse starts to flicker
Feeling sorry never changed
This blinding pain
Narrow-sighted, I scour
As the pieces chip away
Long faces break
They break
This flame it burns stronger
The warmth it provides
Forget the past as
Burnt pages
They smolder
Lost sense of all time
A need to rewind
Gears turning inside
Turn over and over
And I ponder for hours
Everything means more these days
Good friends remain
Fuel the will to recover
Tears that slowly dissipate
I'll bear this weight
No more
Strained chords
Heard from miles away
Distort
Distorted waves change phase
I'll endure
Momentary relapse is delayed
Passed forth
Through the slow decay
Rebuilt
Built from travesties
I'll endure
Momentary relapse is delayed
Desperate breaths
Will alleviate
This flame it burns stronger
The warmth it provides
Forget the past as
Burnt pages
They smolder
Lost sense of all time
A need to rewind
Gears turning inside
Turn over
Strained chords
Heard from miles away
Distort
Distorted waves change phase
I'll endure
Momentary relapse is delayed
Passed forth
Through the slow decay
Rebuilt
Built from travesties
I'll endure
Momentary relapse is delayed
Desperate breaths
Will alleviate
When I fall
When I break
These friends carry me through
