Lyrics
Find another songI want to know
How it feels
When we die
Can you take me under?
Dream over
Grieve no more
And breathe one last time
Now I lay thee down
She watched me leave
Kneeling
On the floor
As she takes me under
Dream over
Grieve no more
And breathe one last time
Now I lay thee down
Godless mimicry
White lights cemetery
Flashes of the angel's ivory wings
Images so many broken dreams of pain
Terror
Fear
Crippling
Follow the light into the tunnel
Or will it end up in a black hole?
Follow the light into the tunnel
Dead in its end
Was it love?
Was it murder?
Within the eyes of the beholder
Was it love?
Was it murder?
Within the eyes of the beholder
What have I done?
I've gone and killed the only one I love
How could I do this?
I'm screaming at God
Why do you curse me?
Fuck it, load it, sever the day
Dream over
Grieve no more
And breathe one last time
Now I lay thee
Now I lay thee down
Underground
