Dead Man's Chest Lyrics
When your lungs collapse,
When your last breath fails.
Upon reflection
the fatal choice was yours alone.
Convulsions constrict your flesh
into a portrait of agony.
Crushed
into a portrait of agony.
This is cataclysmic failure,
as your organs refuse to prevail.
This is pointless suffering.
How does it feel to know
you brought this shit on yourself.
The dawning of consequence.
Your actions have their price.
I won't pay for your mistakes.
As panic grips your nerves,
You'll get what you deserve.
Now brace yourself as all hell breaks.
All hell breaks loose.
Fucked up. This system's shutting down.
Drowned in disease.
Staccato bursts of blood prelude a flat line ending.
Suffocation overrides the persistent beat of life.
When your last breath fails.
Upon reflection
the fatal choice was yours alone.
Convulsions constrict your flesh
into a portrait of agony.
Crushed
into a portrait of agony.
as your organs refuse to prevail.
This is pointless suffering.
How does it feel to know
you brought this shit on yourself.
Your actions have their price.
I won't pay for your mistakes.
As panic grips your nerves,
You'll get what you deserve.
Now brace yourself as all hell breaks.
Drowned in disease.
Staccato bursts of blood prelude a flat line ending.
Suffocation overrides the persistent beat of life.

This is a pretty straightfoward song; you'll pay for your actions.
This song also makes me want to get in a fight with the biggest guy I see.
winston said in an interview with crafter that this song is about how fucked up smoking is and its fucking stupid to do it
Yea, it's about smoking. "When your lungs collapse", "When your last Breath fails", kinda give it away along with other lines in this song.

of course its about smoking
"When your lungs collapse, When your last breath fails. Upon reflection the fatal choice was yours alone"
"Fucked up. This system's shutting down. Drowned in disease. Staccato bursts of blood prelude a flat line ending. Suffocation overrides the persistent beat of life."
even the title suggests it "Dead Man's Chest" Smoking will give you the chest of a dead man enough said. Winston = Legend
is Winston straight edge? the song seems to give off that sorta vibe.
The whole band is straight edge. :S
The whole band is straight edge. :S

i read in an interview winston wrote this after he got sick at a show cause heaps of people in the crowd were smoking while parkway were performing

About smoking, of course. It makes me think about the bigger picture..
I like it.
