Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I held death's hand this evening
[Verse 2]
Can't keep my heart from beating
Can't keep my throat from screaming
There has to be another way for me to keep on living
I held death's hand this evening
Closed my eyes, now I'm dreaming
I promise I won't leave here
Don't let me die, I'm fucking screaming
[Verse 3]
'Cause I've got more life left to live
Got some promises to keep
To all the hearts that carried me
Out from the ocean deep
I've had to do some searching
To understand the reasons for every selfish feeling
I held death's hand this evening
[Verse 4]
Now my lungs are failing
And my heart is fading
My mind is taking me so far away, I'm dreaming
For every selfish reason
I tip the bottle, drowning
[Verse 5]
I pour my hear out
To stop you from leaving
I held death's hand this evening
Closed my eyes, now I'm dreaming
I promise I won't leave here
Don't let me die, I'm fucking screaming
[Verse 6]
'Cause I've got more life left to live
Got some promises to keep
To all the hearts that carried me
Out from the ocean deep
I've had to do some searching
To understand the reasons for every selfish feeling
I held death's hand this evening
[Verse 7]
You're the ones that kept me going
I owe you this much
You gave me the strength to say
Hey Death (Get fucked)
[Verse 8]
You're the ones that kept me going
I owe you this much
You gave me the strength to say
Hey Death (Get fucked)
[Verse 9]
Now my lungs are failing
And my heart is fading
My mind is taking me so far away, I'm dreaming
Now my lungs are failing
And my heart is fading
My mind is taking me
