every time i die - overstayer lyrics
i should have drown in the flood with the rest
i had the chance
the current was pitiless
and proof of man was wiped from the face of earth
the song, the dance
yeah, i should have gone with it
alas, alas i’m stranded alone in the wake
now i have lost all sight of the grave
when did i ever say that i want to be saved?
i can see for miles but it don’t look the same
when no road has been paved go up
go up , go up, go up
now how am i gonna get down?
i want a slow death wrought from the dregs
“i want to be sedated,” just like joe said
i want the heaviest heart
i have eaten my weight in gold
i can see only what i’m shown up here
but in the coals with common men who yearn for ordinary things
love cannot find us
so get out of my way
i got out of my own way
better a tramp than a captive
better alone than lonely with all these “friends”
what in the f-ck am i doing here?
why did the rapture not take me in?
it is my curse to carry on
i should have died when i was young
i should still be burning lung
if i had known what i’d become
i said
i should have drown in the flood with the rest
i had the chance, but here i am
