Handguns - Death Cheater lyrics
[Handguns - Death Cheater lyrics]
Tonight I found it creeping up on me
Coming from the corners and
Keeping me from sleep
I'm not getting any younger
The world's not spinning any slower
Soon enough I'll be gone (I'll be gone)
So when my heart stops beating
And if my lungs collapse from screaming
"There'll be no more songs about being
In a washed-up punk band!"
I've been running for so long
There's only air left in my lungs
Never said I wasn't strong
Buried in a shallow grave
Staring death down in the face
Dig myself out in light of better days
I'd be lying if I told you
That I didn't think about this
Every hour, every minute
Every second of the day a roll of the dice
A slip of the tongue
I keep playing with fire
I love getting stung
So burn me and crucify me
I've been running for so long
There's only air left in my lungs
Never said I wasn't strong
Buried in a shallow grave
Staring death down in the face
Dig myself out in light of better days
Is it worth it to you
If you've got nothing left to lose?
Is it worth it to you? Is it worth it to you
If you've got nothing left to lose?
And you got nothing left to prove?
Is it worth it to you?
Is it worth it to you?
Is it worth it to you?
I've been running for so long
There's only air left in my lungs
Never said I wasn't strong
Buried in a shallow grave
Staring death down in the face
Dig myself out in light of better days
Best described as bittersweet
Don't let death know I'm gonna cheat
All my fingers crossed as I repeat
Clothes soaked through with gasoline
Promise I won't cry or scream
Strike the blaze that takes my own life
Just so you can feel the
Warmth and see the light
Coming from the corners and
Keeping me from sleep
I'm not getting any younger
The world's not spinning any slower
Soon enough I'll be gone (I'll be gone)
So when my heart stops beating
And if my lungs collapse from screaming
"There'll be no more songs about being
In a washed-up punk band!"
I've been running for so long
There's only air left in my lungs
Never said I wasn't strong
Buried in a shallow grave
Staring death down in the face
Dig myself out in light of better days
I'd be lying if I told you
That I didn't think about this
Every hour, every minute
Every second of the day a roll of the dice
A slip of the tongue
I keep playing with fire
I love getting stung
So burn me and crucify me
I've been running for so long
There's only air left in my lungs
Never said I wasn't strong
Buried in a shallow grave
Staring death down in the face
Dig myself out in light of better days
Is it worth it to you
If you've got nothing left to lose?
Is it worth it to you? Is it worth it to you
If you've got nothing left to lose?
And you got nothing left to prove?
Is it worth it to you?
Is it worth it to you?
Is it worth it to you?
I've been running for so long
There's only air left in my lungs
Never said I wasn't strong
Buried in a shallow grave
Staring death down in the face
Dig myself out in light of better days
Best described as bittersweet
Don't let death know I'm gonna cheat
All my fingers crossed as I repeat
Clothes soaked through with gasoline
Promise I won't cry or scream
Strike the blaze that takes my own life
Just so you can feel the
Warmth and see the light
