Mercury Rising - From Autumn To Ashes

How sad, this is what your life has

Been reduced to a single room apartment

Containing no more than a mattress

How sad when the strings have been

Removed from the blinds

And all the outlets have been painted over

And the television screen is streaked

With blood smeared from your knuckles

As you were trying to punch it out

But you underestimated your strength

Or maybe you just weren’t trying hard enough

Startled by a knock at the door

You rise for the first time in two days to answer

But you can only greet the visitor with one short statement

Hello my first name is distance

And I really don’t care if I never wake up again

Hello my name is distance

And I really don’t care if I never wake up again

And I really don’t care if I never wake up again

And I really don’t care if I never wake up again
