Lyrics
Santa Muerte
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Bile is coming out of my black guts
One last time I’ll speak up
Before my tainted flesh starts to rot
The darkness is terrifying me
But I don’t rationalize with make-believe
It’s time to face my fears
It doesn’t matter to who you pray
It ends the same
My one true God is death
It’s the time bomb that keeps
Ticking into your ear
Making things exciting
Always in your shadow
My one true God is death
When you’ll finally meet
It won’t discriminate
With your wealth, with your skin tone, your sex, your age
My one true God is
Laughing at the holy wars and smiles
Making idiots disappear
Taking them before their time
The promised land
Is not what you believe
It’s not up there
It’s right under your feet
Where remains rest in peace
My one true God
Won’t let me down
I'm bowing, I'm bowing down
I'm kneeling, I'm kneeling down
And I am letting Santa Muerte
Set me free
