My Apocalypse Lyrics

Cover art for My Apocalypse lyrics by Escape the Fate

I have a feeling that the lyrics are about someone who's about to be executed. the line, "destroy the guillotine! before he does" I think it's about making the person unable to be killed and the line "hiding from the gallows, they keep me safe and sound!" is like him saying, im trying not to die.

I may be wrong, but that was my guess.

the horror story fits, im not sure about the ghost figure, it's a good idea and I'm not here to judge.
