Lyrics
Black Death
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.
Take down the bridges, don't let them through
They're coming and they're bearing gifts for you
Bring on our future now
Take out the weak
It was the only way it could have been
The selfish survive again
Fleet the scene
By any means stay alive
Destroyers! murders that hide in disguise
Healers coming through, they're bleeding you
Wise men, coming through, spreading final breath
The good have come to spread disease this time
So cut me open wide
Oh let them purge this thing inside of me
Oh no, it won't subside
This town is caving in, who's left alive? wonder what miracle we could contrive
I think i must be next, well overdue
Got nothing much left here to hold onto
The selfish survive again
Flee the scene
By any means stay alive
Destroyers! murders that hide in disguise
Healers coming through, they're bleeding you
Wise men coming through, spreading final breath
The good have come to spread disease this time
So cut me open wide
Oh let them purge this thing inside of me
Oh no, it won't subside
This is where good men die!
