Reaper Lyrics
Every day I'm on death row
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
Every day I'm on death row
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
Oh God, I've got a story to tell
I've touched his hands, let him drag me to Hell
Oh God, is there a soul to steal?
It's wrapped in death, the reaper is real
Ripped apart, every piece inside of me
Take everything till nothing's left
Eyes fixed on the sands of eternity
Never ending apocalypse
Every day I'm on death row
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
Every day I'm on death row
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
Weathered eyes waiting for the descent
When will the clock stop the torment?
Time's running out, draining from my skull
Sit back and watch the death flow
Fate, I can't escape the decay
Ruin, my time slipping away
The price I pay
The price I pay is a life lived in vein
I see my death playing on repeat, playing on repeat
Every day I'm on death row
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
Every day I'm on death row
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
"We don't have time"
"We, we don't have time"
"Time has us"
Trapped in infinity
Let me out
Unending deity
Drunk on the blood of saints and murderers
Trapped in infinity
Let me out
Unending deity
Drunk on the blood of saints and murderers
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
Every day I'm on death row
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
I've touched his hands, let him drag me to Hell
Oh God, is there a soul to steal?
It's wrapped in death, the reaper is real
Ripped apart, every piece inside of me
Take everything till nothing's left
Eyes fixed on the sands of eternity
Never ending apocalypse
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
Every day I'm on death row
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
When will the clock stop the torment?
Time's running out, draining from my skull
Sit back and watch the death flow
Fate, I can't escape the decay
Ruin, my time slipping away
The price I pay
The price I pay is a life lived in vein
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
Every day I'm on death row
Repeating over and over again
Was I born just to die slow?
Breaking down before the bend
"We, we don't have time"
"Time has us"
Let me out
Unending deity
Drunk on the blood of saints and murderers
Trapped in infinity
Let me out
Unending deity
Drunk on the blood of saints and murderers

“Reaper is a love letter to one of my favourite shows of all time, Dark. The show deals with the idea of time being ‘God’ and something that is inevitable, and unchangeable. The events with my wife really made this show hit differently, since death was constantly on my mind since that night.” https://www.kerrang.com/fit-for-a-kings-track-by-track-guide-to-new-album-the-hell-we-create
