Borrow Time
by James Donica
Lyrics
Verse 1
Life's like a hand grenade
Thrown into a hurricane
I don't get mad, I get even
I keep my drams in the flame
I am the serpent
I'm the flames
You can hear me moving
Through the pain and rain
Blood of tears
Fear the pain
I was made in the wreckage
I was forged to be your blame
Pre-Chorus
Count your saints
Count your lies
I left my mercy
On the other side
Chorus
Borrowed time
Borrowed life
You let me breathe too long
Borrowed time
Borrowed lies
Now the night comes on strong
(You let me live)
(I let you die)
Borrowed lives
Verse 2
I will show you
What I meant to be
I wore the chains
Then I broke the key
Blood on the floor
Ash in the mouth
Every name you hid
I dragged it out
You brag like kings
You begged like thieves
Now your echo walks
Where you used to breathe
Pre-Chorus
Count your saints
Count your lies
I left my mercy
On the other side
Chorus
Borrowed time
Borrowed life
You let me breathe too long
Borrowed time
Borrowed lies
Now the night comes on strong
(You let me live)
(I let you die)
Borrowed time
Bridge
I am the immortal
Whose name shall not be said
I am the silence
At the foot of your bed
No crown
No grave
Just the sound of your faith
Final Chorus
Borrowed time
Borrowed life
You let me live too long
Borrowed time
Borrowed lies
Now the night comes on strong
(I am the serpent)
(I am the flames)
Borrowed time
Borrowed life
Borrowed lies
Say it while you can
