Caving

My life leaks away
Groan by groan
My years are fading in sighs
I am growing weary. x2

They want to blot me from their memory
Forget me like a corpse in a grave
Throw me out with the scraps
Behind doors they plot to ruin me

And I'll be honest with you
It's caving in on me
I've been breaking through walls to get free
Neck deep in this sinking sand
I will no longer run

But my trust will remain, it's everlasting
Your hands hold my days
X2

Embarrass the wicked
Stand them up
Leave them shaking their heads
As they drift down to hell, drift down to hell
Down to hell
Drift to hell

Gag the loudmouthed liars
Who heckle me, your follower
Slam the door on those oily, mocking faces
Silence the venom of gossip

I cannot go it alone
The world is caving in on me
X3
The world is caving in on me
