Death By Water
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.
All my heroes have died at the end of a rope petrified
So what's that mean for me cause I've been mining for salt in an empty sea
I've been reading my horoscope hoping it will help me cope
Will this anxiety always have its hold on me?
So I'll dive down into hell
Oh don't bother wishing me well
I left my heart inside the ocean of you
I set fire to the sail
(I set fire to the sail)
I let my lungs fill up, I'm choking on you
There's no way I'll get away
(Away)
This connection feels like it's too much
But that's just the price you pay for love
So I'll dive down into hell
Oh don't bother wishing me well
(Don't bother wishing me well)
I left my heart inside the ocean of you
I set fire to the sail
(I set fire to the sail)
I let my lungs fill up, I'm choking on you
There's no way I'll get away
(Away)
I always listen to sad songs in the morning
So it gets better than this
When the Sun comes up I can see the faults
I can see the faults and fill them in
The darker the night
The brighter the stars
The deeper the grief
The closer you are to God
(What is Hell?)
To God
(What is Hell?)
To God
(What is Hell?)
(It's being unable to love)
I left my heart inside the ocean of you
I set fire to the sail
(I set fire to the sail)
I let my lungs fill up, I'm choking on you
There's no way I'll get away
(Away)
