Eleven Fifty Nine

(album: The Incubus - 2016)

It's eleven fifty-nine
It's the story of my life and everything that could change in it
It's eleven fifty-nine
It's the minute I could die and be lost to the end

God save me!

The clock counts down to my demise
Each faucet drip pierces my ears and swells my eyes
With tears I feel one now it burns as it runs down my face
I want to save myself but now I fear it's far too late

Fate hides outside
Worries run through my mind
What will I find, what will I find?
Under your medals, uniforms, and mini model Ts
A dirty secret that you never wanted us to see

Lost in the rain
I'm abandoned and betrayed
The predator's been preying all along and I'm the game
(And I'm the game!)
I should have known, should have seen the signs
Cause never were they clearer, I'm a mess, how will I ever survive?
The clock is ticking away
It's counting down the minutes to the seconds of the rest of our lives

You're sick, you're a plague on me
Cyanide you are the poison on society!
(You're slowly killing me!)
Perverted, twisted, fantasy!
How could you do this to me?!

Your lies have forsaken me
We were a family!

This proof just can't exist
Refuse to believe in this
God I should have known,
God I should have known!
These pictures of your victims some of them just barely teens!
In silver frame, your latest victim it's a picture of me!

Lost in the rain
I'm abandoned and betrayed
The predator's been preying all along and I'm the game
(And I'm the game!)
I should have known, should have seen the signs
Cause never were they clearer, I'm a mess, how will I ever survive?
The clock is ticking away
It's counting down the minutes to the seconds of the rest of our lives

I'm starving but I can't seem to eat
I'm so tired, but I won't fall asleep!
I won't lie down
I've got to lie down...
Fuck. I can't
I can't breathe!

I should have known
You were the one who'd take it all away from me!

The labyrinth in my mind just trapped me in that horrible dream!

We fell in love. We shared a life, you vowed it all to me!

Your lies have forsaken me
We were a family!
