'Cause I'm so scared of dying since your fall I'm so scared of dying when you watched it go down, down And I watched your face in the fire near Jamison Hall While your sister and brother read chapters on how your skin burned You're singing hallelujah, and the angels came and took you down You asked the right direction, they told you it's protection, you know
Did you believe 'em? Or are they liars? Do you believe 'em? What a lie
'Cause I'm so scared of dying since I saw your skin fall I'm so scared of dying since you watched it go down, down, down Now I told you I need you and you screamed "hallelujah, here we go" And I hoped you believed me when I told you you were beautiful 'Cause I meant it, man... But I didn't always mean it Does that make me a liar? I mean it. What a lie.
These cuts on my fingers, from the laundry I've done Washing out all your prints, and the fire in my hall Don't worry about it, I heard what you said and it's good And I appreciate it more than any other man ever could God, I believe you, anyway... Just leave me, any day.
Where I told you I loved you, God damn-ing, I'm in it When I told you I loved you, good Jesus, I'm in it I hear lives look like fire crackers And oh shit you're not breathing, but man I can feel you inside Don't waste away, under the ground; rise up for me, under the ground 'Cause I'm wasting away, under the ground
