Drastic Measures

Gut the fish

Leave me the rhythm 

Of its severed stomach

Two twins death-defying

When you know they're about to faint

Shedding their swan song

For us to hear and fear

Over pints of beer

'Cause they're no longer here

Strike the match

Light another fuse to blow the wind toward it

This day unrelenting

When you know you could've moved 

Another inch towards your shell

And it's breaking

Staking your life every time you take a bow

Listen to me

Time's beyond my reach

It could all break down in a second

Unless you

Cut the rope

Fall all the way towards the ground

And sprint to the thieves

Two blades sharp and ready

To spring open and take out swift revenge

In a minute

And he'll have you by the throat

Retrieving the location of his suicide note
