13 Feet Beneath

Shackled to fate How soon is too late? How soon is too late? Like bullets in roulette Waiting for time or regret If Heaven's gates are locked I'll smile for the firing squad This grave holds no rest or peace My demons wait within the dirt And in my sleep they beckon me Thirteen feet beneath the earth Bury me with one for luck Twice as deep 'cause we're both fucked Shadow and self are one and the same The Void inside still calls to me For expiation Through mutilation Empty words and silent screams Slit wrists on shards of broken dreams Too scorned to love, too cold to hate And each lifeline is a deadweight Face the mirror, speak no lies This way tonight madness dies This grave holds no rest or peace My demons wait within the dirt And in my sleep they beckon me Thirteen feet beneath the earth There's no reprieve Just let me breathe Let me breathe Thirteen feet deep My soul to keep And so they wait for me And all we face, we face alone When fortune forsakes, will we escape or erode? Agony so sweet, let us taste the truth And test the mettle of an iron will Breathe into me Make me free Breathe into me I'll never rest in peace Til' you sleep Thirteen feet beneath me
