Lyrics

[Intro]
Surprise! You're dead!
[Verse 1]
Open your eyes
See the world as it used to be when you used to be in it
When you were alive, and when you were in love
And when I took it from you
It's not over yet
[Verse 2]
You don't remember, I won't let you forget
The hatred I bestowed
Upon your neck with a fatal blow
[PreChorus]
From my teeth and my tongue
I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun
Now you are mine
I'll keep killin' you until the end of time
[Chorus]
Surprise! You're dead!
Guess what?
It never ends
[Verse 3]
The pain, the torment, and torture, profanity
Nausea, sufferin', perversion, calamity
You can't get away
[Verse 4]
It's not over yet
You don't remember, I won't let you forget
The hatred I bestowed
Upon your neck with a fatal blow
[Verse 5]
From my teeth and my tongue
I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun
Now you are mine
I'll keep killin' you until the end of time
[Chorus]
Surprise! You're dead!
Surprise! You're dead!
Guess what?
It never ends
Never ever ends
