Like a candle wick to a flame About to run out The glow is starting to burn out. Dimming slowly to the sound of the clock Shadows grow as the light fades out The warmth of the flame getting colder now.

Hazy
The same feeling building up againMy head spinning from its wakeReborn to steal my peaceLight headed patterns trace me.
