Faking My Own Death

I just wanna say that I'm sorry in advance Count on me like clockwork, it won't work The only promise I can make is, I'm changing all my plans And you'll never see me again I'm warning you it's over before it began We're diving in headfirst, in reverse You're swimming through my wake, and I'm slipping through your hands And you'll never see me again Typical, it's so cyclical I got one foot out the door, but I don't fight it anymore Don't hold your breath, I'm faking my own death I'll drop a burning match and burn the bridge that takes me back I'm putting it to rest, I'm faking my own death Three years passes and I'm rising from the ashes I'm rising from the ashes I'm stuck repeating history and I just can't help myself It's almost like I'm always someone else There's nothing you could say to me in sickness or in health I hate it just as well Typical, it's so cyclical I got one foot out the door, but I don't fight it anymore Don't hold your breath, I'm faking my own death I'll drop a burning match and burn the bridge that takes me back I'm putting it to rest, I'm faking my own death Three years passes, and I'm rising from the ashes (ashes) I'm rising from the ashes (ashes) I'm missing in action (action) Three years passing (passing) Don't hold your breath, I'm faking my own death I'll drop a burning match and burn the bridge that takes me back I'm putting it to rest, I'm faking my own death Three years passes, and I'm rising from the ashes I'm rising from the ashes
