Squeeze and hold
With my hands
Gripped tight
Around your neck
You breathe to me
But I'm born
And bled to feed this hit
Two left dead and I'm king
This monster preys on the weak
Trying to live but to win
Is to die here alone
The deathsurround
Proving your place
In the filth
To be cast from
Your thrown
The deathsurround
I am the air that you breathe
The idol you see
Trying to live but to win
Is to die here alone
The deathsurround
In this skin I've been
Playing the
Roll of the shape shifter
These walls cave in
Having to sleep with
Both eyes open
Forced my self extraction
This monster's coming undone
Trying to live but to win
Is to die here alone
The deathsurround
Proving your place
In the filth
To be cast from
Your thrown
The deathsurround
I am the air that you breathe
The idol you see
Trying to live but to win
Is to die here alone
The deathsurround
Oh god
Where did this monster come from
God did you think it would break me
Don't come any closer
I'll have my closure
I'll decide when you go
The deathsurround
Unchain the monster
Unchain!
Trying to live but to win
Is to die here alone
The deathsurround
Proving your place
In the filth
To be cast from
Your thrown
The deathsurround
I am the air that you breathe
The idol you see
Trying to live but to win
Is to die here alone
The deathsurround
