Lyrics

It’s 3:18, mouth tastes like the corpse of every pregnant teen
The minutes are hours, the hours are days
I feel infected by your presence, you speak in tounges
I smell the lies dancing on your blackened lungs

I whispered in her ear:
Fear me dear, for I am Death
I’ll take your hope, your dreams, your love
Till there’s nothing left

I whispered in her ear:
You better fear me dear, for I am Death
And I’ll take that you call a life
And I’ll see them breath

I’ll take your hope
I’ll take your dreams
I’ll take your love
I’ll take everything you bitch.

I’ll steal the diamonds from your eyes
I’ll turn your promises into lies
I’ll steal the diamonds from your eyes
I’ll turn your promises into lies

It’s 3:18, mouth tastes like the corpse of every pregnant teen
The hours are days, the days are dead
I feel infected by your presence, you speak in tounges
I smell the lies dancing on your blackened lungs

I hear the fear in your voice, but you shouldn’t feel a thing,
Your life’s already worse than any pain that I could bring
That I could bring
That I could bring

I could make it December every day,
But you’re so blind, it may as well be May

And I whispered in her ear:
You better fear me dear, for this is Death
And I whispered in her ear:
Fear me, ’cause I am Death

One more time

I whispered in her ear:
Fear me dear, for I am Death,
I’ll take everything you ever loved

I whispered in her ear:
You better fear me, for I am Death.
For I am Death.
For I am Death

Bitch

Anchor and Braille – Wedding-Funeral

Anchor and Braille – Wedding-Funeral

Lyrics:

This is for your wedding/funeral day
You always liked to be the center of attention
So here you are
Dressed so beautiful
Just like I remember
Always outshining the rest
Sun, moon, and stars
You face looks so content
As I walk to find a chair
Just a few feet away, but miles apart

Why did I let you go
How could I let you leave my side
Would have been something amazing
Should have been wild
Why did I let you go
How could I let you leave my side
Would have been something amazing
Should have been wild and learned

I’m a great burning lament to this day
But I realize now you’re in a better place
Hands will tremble
As you’re lowered down the aisle
But you won’t look at me
Not so much as smile
I want to stand up and speak my peace
And let your hollow pieces walk away

Why did I let you go
How could I let you leave my side
Would have been something amazing
Should have been wild
Why did I let you go
And let you leave my side
Would have been something
Should have been wild
Why did I let you go
How could I let you leave my side
Would have been something amazing
Should have been wild
Why did I let you go
How could I let you leave my side
Should have been something
Should have been wild and learned
