Melanie Martinez - Death (2020) lyrics
[Melanie Martinez - Death 2020 lyrics]
Can't sleep, I won't eat
You're perishing before me
I'm panicked and rot at the core
Your words, they still haunt me
Like shadows on the concrete
The pain spreads like vines in my bones
Don't tell me that you're going
Far away like that
I thought the distance was a string
That would lead us back
Now I'm in the middle
Contemplating what my fickle
Heart really gained from the way that
I left it with you
Death has come
It knocks on my door like a stalker
Don't answer, answer my ego won
I'd put the pieces back but
I burned all my chances
Took our time for granted, oh
The knife keeps twisting
So much I'm regretting, oh
Next time, I'll listen
I hide in your corners
Peak over your shoulders
It's strange how you're missing me now
Heart's breaking 'cause I'm going
Far away like that
You thought the distance was a string
That would lead us back
Now you're in the middle
Contemplating what your fickle
Heart really gained from the way that
You left it with me
Death has come
It knocks on my door like a stalker
Don't answer, answer my ego won
I'd put the pieces back but
I burned all my chances
Took our time for granted, oh
The knife keeps twisting
So much I'm regretting, oh
Next time, I'll listen
You're perishing before me
I'm panicked and rot at the core
Your words, they still haunt me
Like shadows on the concrete
The pain spreads like vines in my bones
Don't tell me that you're going
Far away like that
I thought the distance was a string
That would lead us back
Now I'm in the middle
Contemplating what my fickle
Heart really gained from the way that
I left it with you
Death has come
It knocks on my door like a stalker
Don't answer, answer my ego won
I'd put the pieces back but
I burned all my chances
Took our time for granted, oh
The knife keeps twisting
So much I'm regretting, oh
Next time, I'll listen
I hide in your corners
Peak over your shoulders
It's strange how you're missing me now
Heart's breaking 'cause I'm going
Far away like that
You thought the distance was a string
That would lead us back
Now you're in the middle
Contemplating what your fickle
Heart really gained from the way that
You left it with me
Death has come
It knocks on my door like a stalker
Don't answer, answer my ego won
I'd put the pieces back but
I burned all my chances
Took our time for granted, oh
The knife keeps twisting
So much I'm regretting, oh
Next time, I'll listen
