AFI – A Single Second

Oh my God! My God this can’t be happening!

God tell me, tell me this isn’t real!

I can’t believe all that I have

foreseen is finally happening.

I cannot for a single second stand the way I feel.

I always knew. I always saw it coming.

Enveloped now, encased by my worst fear.

I’ve never felt the nausea of longing to feel nothing,

I never wanted to cease to

exist, just disappear. Fear memories are all that lie ahead.

Never have I felt so lost. Memories dull my senses.

Fear tragedy is all that lies ahead.

Never have I felt so dead.

Once felt so warm, no I’m fucking freezing.

I am the once embraced abandoned one.

I raised my eyes up to the light in hopes of finding healing;

no relief was mine, I was burnt, by the sun.
