B.Lewis - Autumn lyrics

Woke up in a cold sweat Alone where the ghost slept I never thought I was the type I would have took the frost but I must have made it obvious Cause every time it happens I'm the one who gets the bite Fading like the lights on the last bus out of here Kicking up dust disappear into the night Nothing lasts forever But judging by the weather I'm starting to get a sick feeling thinkin' it might And I don't want to fight you anymore Benjamin It's a plague A lose-lose situation in a maze with a crazed man chasing the kid in me with a blade That's too proud to ever admit he's afraid So pile the rocks on me I don't know what to say The whole worlds' watching but I don't think they relate I was right where I landed Simple and plain Another victim of the sickle and the flame The flame blows out Won't ever see it coming Funny how This is all I ever wanted Was the price you paid When you try to cross a river without drowning Fell asleep with my bones cold Blowing smoke through a froze throat Trying to focus on the flash I would of grabbed the whip But they must have seen me coming Cause no matter what I do I always seem to catch the lash Painting with the ash left sitting at the base of what I used to be pretty familiar with as home I don't know if fate's trying to k** me Or teach me how to grow But either way it's got me feeling hopeless And I don't want to climb this tattered up rope anymore, man Sick of thinking I'ma fall The Devil's greatest trick was convincing the world he never existed And mine was a broken crystal ball Looking at the shards trying to figure out the future with a bloody hand holding it together from the base Funny how the bu*terflies flapping in my stomach finally figured out a way to make a valiant escape We talk about the coals and the bats Choking on the facts Fighting with the current to our backs Nobody ever promised me tomorrow more than anybody told me I would die before I ever made it back And even if I had It's only a matter of time until it catches up with me to loosen up my grasp Everything I've done in the name of being strong always seems to come around and try to k** me where I stand The flame blows out Won't ever see it coming Funny how This is all I ever wanted Was the price you paid When you try to cross a river without drowning
