Lady Death Never Wanted Me As a Lover

[Adam WarRock] [Verse 1] I stroke my scars like Jewels, gems, and diamonds The battle's far from fools Men who find them And put the pieces together Puzzles left without the pieces forever Into these pieces that were tethered And spread my pain to each corner The world over And life goes on and each planet Who soothes quarter The tide ebbs I sit and wait for nothing This is the place Where men die and sit waiting When god's coming I lost my faith long ago And learned to face down Push back the hate And felt regret wasted now I only wanted to feel something But feel nothing And i was promised the universe For real, cousin And every time i reach for heavenly heights The dust crumbled from my finger tips And sediment died A life time of pain As i sit to ponder everything At peace He is i And i am him So let me sing [Hook] Life and death are states i flicker in and out of My regrets are left and now the taste is sour If i'm dead then tell me how to get me out of Feeling this cause lifetimes pass me every hour And lady death, she's never one to rely And life is just a bitch until the day that you die And time is no excuse and so within it we hide And create songs in history Preserved in the lie (i wanna scream fuck you But the problem is i love you) (i wanna scream fuck you But the problem is i love you) [Verse 2] I offered her the universe She gave me a pen I wrote about the things I swore to do til the end And built temples and statues And they trapped me within And here i sit waiting For the next life to begin The first time i met the devil Was at a bar one night Sitting next to me He asked me what i wanted from life I told him all i knew Was death was coming closer And i embraced her Held her close like My beautiful bride Cause lady luck Will cast a spell and Make you reminisce the scene And fate will toss come-hither glances Over broken dreams And love is just a fantasy we place in songs To keep 'em spinning Hate and anger fill the crevices and keep us power driven I never wanted this life And now i'm stuck with it And for the first time I'm seeing my life in flushed limits And every song that i write nothing But rushed gimmicks Death is nothing more than living With nothing done in it [Hook] Life and death are states i flicker in and out of My regrets are left and now the taste is sour If i'm dead then tell me how to get me out of Feeling this cause lifetimes pass me every hour And lady death, she's never one to rely And life is just a bitch until the day that you die And time is no excuse and so within it we hide And create songs in history Preserved in the lie (i wanna scream fuck you But the problem is i love you) (i wanna scream fuck you But the problem is i love you) [Verse 3] (cause in life) You're told to follow Every dream in your heart (and in death) You wonder why You never bothered to start (and in life) You live each fucking day To the fullest (and in death) You hold the trigger Of the pistol and you pull it Shrugged off existence Left me feeling listless Took the wisdom handed down And passed it to the children And every single misstep Was quite clear From the sixth stench Back to square one Stuck and holding My fists clenched I was left a brittle mess Limped and broken Dipped in sweat Breathing from a broken chest Heaving in A hopeful head Leaving everybody That i once considered kin and flesh Easing towards the exile As my feelings left me torn from them You never started As you hid from the storm You never noticed That you left your fucking heart on the floor And so we reconcile the time And stand a step away And lady death She never really wanted to stay Yes, yes y'all And you don't stop Yes, yes y'all And you don't stop Yes, yes y'all And it don't stop Yes, yes y'all And it don't stop [Hook] Life and death are states i flicker in and out of My regrets are left and now the taste is sour If i'm dead then tell me how to get me out of Feeling this cause lifetimes pass me every hour And lady death, she's never one to rely And life is just a bitch until the day that you die And time is no excuse and so within it we hide And create songs in history Preserved in the lie
