Amnesia Hero
Stray From the Path Lyrics

Scrambling for the phone
Frantically reaching for the phone in an attempt to call for help

Screaming to a dial tone
Expressing desperation as no one is answering the call for help

couldnt get 3 digits down before i had you out the door
Not even able to call for help before resorting to violence against you

I know your shaking
Aware of your fear and anxiety

But the gas pedal is shackled to the floor
Unable to stop the actions that are going to take place

And in the back seat - Fluttered poems of you imperfected with stab wounds inflicted by the malicious intent of theraputic inkfilled utensils
Notes about how your imperfections were the cause of causing harm to you, written by the attacker

Your lips trapped shut by the webs that you've spun
Remained silent about the situation, as if hiding some guilt or wrongdoing

Dont Speak to me as if the blindfold around your head were a halo
Don't pretend to be innocent and do not manipulate the situation

your apologies are bandaids for a hemopheliac
Apologies do not help the situation or atone for the harm caused

Your Eye's see not where we venture nor the smile that this brings me - you're imprisoned in a constant state of tension
Being unaware of the joy brought to the attacker and constantly living in fear

this morning i was as calm as a sheriff in a ghost town
Attacker felt calm and at ease with the situation

but thats what happends when you cope with death
The situation does not bother the attacker as they are used to or have dealt with similar incidents before

it's not warm enough for your heart to thaw out - and i dont think it ever will be
There is no hope for the victim to recover from the situation

But i swear to god this will all be over soon
A promise that the violence and pain will come to an end soon

the red light up ahead serves as a warning solely to those who wish to live
A warning sign for those who value their life, but not for the attacker

just the fact that i removed all the airbags shows that my intentions are strong willed
The attacker's actions show the strength of their will to hurt and cause harm to others

And it's strange how tomorrow's diamonds in the street will be this evenings razors across your face
The attacker is aware of the irony that beauty can turn into ugliness

when they find us they'll see your lipstick smeared and rivers of mascara decending down your mangled cheeks
The physical evidence of harm caused to the victim will be evident to others

Did you ever think a windsheild would be the last thing that you kissed
A rhetorical question that highlights the suddenness of the act of violence that caused the victim's death

WHATS THE DEAL WITH ALL THE AIRLINE FOOD?
An irrelevant statement, possibly inserted for dramatic or comedic effect

I'll rid the world of you
A statement that indicates the attacker intends to kill the victim

but to survive and not recall the deed im about to do would be worse than death itself
The attacker feels that living with the guilt of their actions would be unbearable

I'd let you finally point the finger at yourself
The attacker wants the victim to take responsibility for their own death

If i had kept the keys for the handcuffs - -good bye -
The attacker regrets their decision to let the victim go and wishes they had been handcuffed instead

My life's not worth as Much as your death
The attacker values the death of the victim more than their own life
