I held death's hand this evening Can't keep my heart from beating Can't keep my throat from screaming There has to be another way for me to keep on living
I held death's hand this evening Close my eyes now I'm grieving Promise I won't leave here Don't let me die I'm fucking screaming
Cause I've got more life left to live (got some promises to keep) To all the hearts that carried me (up from the ocean deep) I've had to do some searching to understand our reasons For every selfish feeling (I held deaths hand this evening)
Now my lungs are failing And my heart is fading My life is taking me So far away I'm dreaming For every selfish reason I tip the bottle drowning I pour my heart out Just to stop you from leaving
I held death's hand this evening Closed my eyes now I'm grieving Promise I won't leave here Don't let me die I'm fucking screaming
Cause I've got more life left to live (got some promises to keep) To all the hearts that carry me (up from the ocean deep) I've had to do some searching to understand our reasons For every selfish feeling (I held death's hand this evening)
You're the ones that kept me going I owe you this much You gave me the strength to say Hey Death Get Fucked
Now my lungs are failing And my heart is fading My life is taking me So far away I'm dreaming Now my lungs are failing And my heart is fading My life is taking me
