To Ten

Close me out The walls are closing in I know it's not the end Where do I begin With a memory that's crawling through The shadows of my mind So hard to find So hard to find Be still Be still Don't make a sound Held here by a thread We'll come unwound It was violent indigo But now it fades to black Don't take it back Don't take it Close your eyes and count to ten Hold your breath and start again Close your eyes and count to ten Hold your breath and start again What's this A miss A masterpiece A warning call A plea to be released They took your words and told you What they wanted them To mean Don't make a scene Don't make a scene Close your eyes and count to ten Hold your breath and start again Close your eyes and count to ten Hold your breath and start again There's really nothing to it This tragedy This sin We burn the earth to ashes So the flowers bloom again Is this what you wanted Are you dizzy From the spin Are you dizzy From the spin Are you dizzy From the Spin Close your eyes and count to ten Hold your breath and start again Close your eyes and count to ten Hold your breath and start again
