Oh, Death Lyrics

Lyrics by Mike Dupree and Faith In Ruin

Far better to return to latent state than remain unrecognizable fragments of a mind cannibalized
My head a host for demons I don't even fucking believe in
If it's hell or high water you pray for rain
Fresh meat down a hollow drain
All alone in good company
A devil's grip on a heavenly verse
Opposing self-appointed archangels converge
Caught in the crossfire of myself and I
The middle man carries the weight of us both
The rafters aren't supportive, just a shot-clog accomplice
Let gravity do the dirty work
Don your dead sea swimwear and dive into the drink
Tie the knot, throw in the towel
The trick is to die on your feet
Into the mouth of oblivion
Avoid the teeth with your tongue in cheek
Between a fuck to give and a life to raze
Sisyphus found his hard place
Caught in the crossfire of myself and I
The middle man carries the weight of us both
An island of nothing
A siren's song that never stops enticing you towards the rocks
I didn't mean forever when I flipped the switch
Just stealing time to breathe
Sometimes the light never comes back on
Drag the lake for the rest of me
Oh, death why have you forsaken me
When I've done everything to solicit your company
You've taken everything I love
Am I just not good enough
It's time to cast off shore but I can't pay the fee
Oh, Death
I can't see anything, I'm a ghost in here, I'm a ghost in here
I can't get the spark to re-ignite to prove that I'm still alive
Poison myself to sleep at night, a dreamless state, is dreamless safe?
I don't know so I can't believe, I can't believe, I can't believe
