Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm the angel of the dead
Take a good look at me
Grief is my guilty pleasure
Taking comfort in your pain
[Verse 2]
My happiness is your defeat
Your heartache makes me feel so complete
The compliments roll in and remind me I'm a good friend
I'm here for you until the end
[Chorus]
Open your door, let me in
I need you, you need me too
Open the door, let me in
Let me in
[Chorus]
I am the king
King of sorrow
I am the king
King of sorrow
Bow to me now
Give me your tears
I am the king
King of sorrow
[Bridge]
Rest assured that everything will be okay
It's all going according to plan
Let me speak for you in these times of dread
I'll be your guide
Now please just rest your head
[Chorus]
I am the dead ringer
If it bleeds then it leads
Misery loves company
And you've just met your match
[Chorus]
Open the door, I'll leave you be
Thank you for your sympathy
Open the door, I'll leave you be
I am the saint of empathy
[Chorus]
Farewell
Farewell
Farewell
I've consumed all that I need
Farewell
I am the saint of empathy
