lyrics

Lyrics:

You had a hand in my death
Just like I’ll have a hand in yours
You’ll try put up a futile resistance
But your destiny’s set in stone
Move forward in a lifelike manner
Meaning careful and stupid and bored
Specifically my deaths influence
Will cease your existence I’m sure

(OOOAAAAH OOOOAAAAAH)

Your life’s like the spit in my mouth
It will dry up into a powder
Cause you know that I cared
And the time that we shared
Only lasted for seven hours
Now I captivate all of your senses
And the guilt is seeping to your core
And the weight of my body, all limp on your shoulders
Is a sight that they will deplore

(OOOAAAAH OOOOAAAAAH)

The night man he saw me dangle
From your battered worn down frame
With no word from a judicial system
He decided that you were to blame
Back out to the sticks and silence
My body was left to retrieve
He let out a cry, pulled a colt 45
And said man, best get down on your knees
The last thing you saw was a bright light
Not from heaven but from his pistol
And the last thing you cried before you up and died
Was ‘if only he’d not met my sister’

(OOOAAAAH OOOOAAAAAH)
