[Verse 1] You got the notion, a motion Conclusion that will set us free It takes us closer and closer The human that we wanna be Imperfection was a strife We couldn't handle but we tried it all Tried it all, I descend before the countdown From the notion of emotion I will wake up when I've learnt to fall Breaking the spell, the appearance of perfection [Chorus] It's time to open up the shell Trace the hidden spell Into my breakdown It's my countdown We gonna shoot out like a gun Hit and then we run Into my breakdown It's my countdown [Verse 2] Give my injection, the poison Let's believe that's all I need I can't describe it, the picture was too sharp We couldn't get it off—no! A description, my prescription I can't handle but I've tried it all My reception, a recession to the countdown From the notion of the motion I will wake up when I'm already gone Breaking my shell, I initiate deception [Chorus] It's time to open up the shell Trace the hidden spell Into my breakdown It's my countdown We gonna shoot out like a gun Hit and then we run Into my breakdown It's my countdown [Bridge] Vanity is my profession, follow my lead Letting it free, my seduction, I count down Vice is my obsession (Cellar lobotomy, act as my remedy) Sell me self-deception, my addiction [Verse 3] It's my obsession, the pressure To be a slave for what I trace I force it higher and higher The dose I need to inhale, oh yeah I wanna swing around in hell I'm gonna scream and shout it out in vain Tried it all, I descend before the countdown Be aware that I will wake up if I'm not already dead Breaking the spell, the appearance of perfection [Pre-Chorus] It's time to open up the shell Trace the hidden spell Into my breakdown It's my countdown [Chorus] It's time to open up the shell Trace the hidden spell Into my breakdown It's my countdown We gonna shoot out like a gun Hit and then we run Into my breakdown It's my countdown It's time to open up the shell Trace the hidden spell Into my breakdown It's my countdown We gonna shoot out like a gun Hit and then we run Into my breakdown Now I shut down My countdown
