wind up

just ahead i see you winding up, and you're dressing this color on the edge of fire, until these tightened strides, they march in time again, i don't know if i will cut through, i don't know if my heart will beat without you guiding it, winding up, leading me, winding up to explode, it's the sound of your racing heart, that beats in time with every start, that reaches up and across the sky, that makes us want to try, i'm falling to peices, i can't let go, tearing apart your lies, i want to live, it's the sound of your shotgun pulse, beating over and over in your silent halls, it's a thought that keeps us alive, it makes us want to rise, a scream to guide me through my life, winding up, leading me, winding up to what you can not unwind, this side of you and if it's taken away, you won't know what to do, you're stretching to meet expectations that you will never reach, and now it's far to late to ever leave this cold, i'm giving up, marching in time with your drums, i'm letting go of everything i once loved
