I divided the memory to six I shot to miss, I shot to miss Facing down the abyss I shot to miss, I shot to miss Waking to daybreak, a heart compensates A mind set to break, spyglass and mistake Forgo my sunrise for what I surmise Is just a reprise for still unwise eyes Stagger and retake the still burning ache Use it to remake, leave naught in your wake As the hammer chimes, establish baseline An end that's entwined, this denouement of mine Heart stops, gun cocked I still want what I lost But I know, if that's shown Then I lose I divided the memory to six I shot to miss, I shot to miss Facing down the abyss I shot to miss, I shot to miss Crosshair, pointing nowhere Trying to forget For ignorance is my bliss I shot to miss, I shot to miss Eyes on what I'd known, or thought I had known A mind I'd made up, the stone already thrown Ash and bone marrow, chasing a shadow Muzzle reeling smoke, consequence of hope Fingernails break skin, still found pride therein Content to let it sit and watch the barrel spin A new morning blooms, just as I assumed It leaves me entombed in this shell I can't defy Heart stops, gun cocked At what cost do I haunt? But I know to ask so It would be too wise I divided the memory to six I shot to miss, I shot to miss Facing down the abyss I shot to miss, I shot to miss Crosshair, pointing nowhere Trying to forget For ignorance is my bliss I shot to miss, I shot to miss Heart stops, gun cocked I still want what I lost But I know, if that's shown Then I lose Heart stops, gun cocked The name drops, the world halts And I'll go too far so I know that it's real Heart stops, gun cocked Can't stay here at any cost But I know, I wont let go The rest of my life I divided the memory to six I shot to miss, I shot to miss Facing down the abyss I shot to miss, I shot to miss Crosshair, pointing nowhere Trying to forget For ignorance is my bliss I shot to miss, I shot to miss
