I get an afternoon<br /> 4 hours of your time<br /> The clock is ticking <br /> How could I possibly fit all I need<br /> Into a single timeframe?

They say that:
Broken hearts cannot beat
Wasted souls cannot breath
Corrupted minds cannot think
Tear-filled eyes cannot see
Tangled emotions cannot lead
Pretence cannot last
Love cannot save

They say that:
By right
I should not be alive
