Death Becomes Us
Will you calm my heart again
I wanted to marry and travel the world
Wanted to be with my angel, my girl
I know that I can’t start again
This novocaine abates the moment
I know it hurts but you don’t show it now
I try and settle in
It’s funny how a smile in a photograph
Can bring the tears for punishing no sin
God broke my heart again
Loving lies with good intention
Honey, here comes your light ascension
And so it goes, And so it goes
Life as we imagine it
Is now where ever after is
And so it goes, And so it goes
You’re beautiful, the sunlight falls
Baby, death becomes us all
Will you etch my heart again
Draw me a map to get to your world
Sing me a song, you sang as a girl
Can we catch our love again
Open hands, holy water
Touch my head, I’m falling under now
I guess I’m born again
Toys for gold, I’m bad in bed cause
Dreams get old in a gallery of kids
God broke my heart again
Loving lies with poor attention
Heart machines are bad inventions, Yeah
If God can end what starts
And take my only heart
At least I’m tethered onto you
I feel your rhythm slow
My heart is yours I know
Don’t worry, I will go with you
As ghosts we’ll dance away
In gold, I know we’ll stay
When death becomes us I will pray
Oh, I will pray
