Angel Of Death (Acoustic)

Driving with the angel of death

I pass by your old apartment

Sniffing off the pills you left

Inside the limousine

Nobody could tell me how far

You said we'll stop to read each tea leaf

Nobody could tell me how long

Just pacing patiently

I arrive

In the form of a radical being

You arrive

But the story can never be told

It's harder now to hold ya

Sleeping with the angel of death

I still find you in my shadow

I'm learning how the mirror reflects

I lose myself in you

Well, I was told it wouldn't be long

Life's a basket full of cravings

It's better than the evil, you know

Repeat yourself in me

You arrive

On the hood of your stepfather's Lincoln

The surprise

And I couldn't remember the words

I'm on fire

And the guilt's doing all of the thinking

I'm alive

But it isn't the same as before

Slowly, we become a single mold

Watching as my skin becomes your skin and starts to fold

I was told that there's a wonder in the place our bodies go

We're driving 'round, the sins of both my lives will keep you cold

I deserve it, I've been stalling, I've been selfish, I've been wrong

Well, finally, I heard my name, the absolution calls

Now I need it, now I crave the writing burned into the wall

Sitting in your hands to watch the ending of it all

I arrive

In the eyes of my grandfather's daughter

In the light

But I couldn't remember your words

I survived

And the guilt's falling off me in pieces

I'm alive

But it isn't the same as before

I thought this time I might just walk away from you

If I'm the thief and you're the proof, it's pain to choose

It wasn't a lie, but it wasn't the truth

Tried blaming me, ended up blaming you

It's harder now to hold you

Yeah, it's harder now to hold you

I'm the same, lost my degree, it paid to lose

The first of sixty thousand hours obsessed with you

It wasn't a lie, but it wasn't the truth

Felt like a brand, it was more like a noose

And it's harder now to hold ya

Yeah, it's harder now to hold ya

It's harder now to hold ya

It's harder now to hold ya
