Struck Dead Lyrics
Pain is easier to remember
Struck dead
Struck dead from within
Struck fucking dead
Pain is easier to remember
I must descend again
I fanned the flames and now they're fed
I need to fall from grace
And suffer like I do
This calming blackness creeps below
It pulls me down and won't let go
Why must I fall again
And suffer like I do?
Pain is easier to remember
Struck dead
Struck dead from within
Struck fucking dead
Pain is easier to remember
I must descend again
I fanned the flames and now they're fed
I need to fall from grace
And suffer like I do
This calming blackness creeps below
It pulls me down and won't let go
Why must I fall again
And suffer like I do?
Pain is easier to remember
The wings I've grown have atrophied
The vultures have picked my bones clean
This hungry pack of anxieties
Salivates and chews
Back into the nothingness
Swallowed by my fears
Fuck
Back into the nothingness
Swallowed by my fears
Back into the nothingness
Swallowed by my fears
I must descend again
I fanned the flames and now they're fed
I need to fall from grace
And suffer like I do
Suffer like I do
Suffer like I do
I need to fall from grace
And suffer like I do
This calming blackness creeps below
It pulls me down and won't let go
Why must I fall again
And suffer like I do?
Suffer like I do
Suffer like I do
Why must I fall again
And suffer like I do?
Pain is easier to remember
Struck dead
Struck dead from within
Struck fucking dead
Struck dead, struck dead
Struck fucking dead
Struck dead
Struck dead from within
Struck fucking dead
Pain is easier to remember
I fanned the flames and now they're fed
I need to fall from grace
And suffer like I do
This calming blackness creeps below
It pulls me down and won't let go
Why must I fall again
And suffer like I do?
Struck dead
Struck dead from within
Struck fucking dead
Pain is easier to remember
I fanned the flames and now they're fed
I need to fall from grace
And suffer like I do
This calming blackness creeps below
It pulls me down and won't let go
Why must I fall again
And suffer like I do?
The vultures have picked my bones clean
This hungry pack of anxieties
Salivates and chews
Swallowed by my fears
Fuck
Swallowed by my fears
Swallowed by my fears
I fanned the flames and now they're fed
I need to fall from grace
And suffer like I do
Suffer like I do
Suffer like I do
I need to fall from grace
And suffer like I do
It pulls me down and won't let go
Why must I fall again
And suffer like I do?
Suffer like I do
Suffer like I do
Why must I fall again
And suffer like I do?
Struck dead
Struck dead from within
Struck fucking dead
Struck dead, struck dead
Struck fucking dead
