Coffin


Hang me, burn me, shoot me, yearn for me
Diss me, kiss me, see what you're missing

I'm in my wooden box
And I'm so confused
I'm killing you all
Cuz I can't take the abuse

The air is clear
There's not a cloud in the sky
You couldn't have chosen
A better day to die
All around you
Can you hear the screams?
Are people dying
Or is it just in your dreams?
You fall short of worthy
That's what they all say
The time draws nigh
And you are going to pay

I'm in my wooden box
And I'm all alone
Some call it hell
But I say it's my throne
I'm really very humble
But I thrive off your pain
When I see you in tears
I'm just so glad that you came

The sun is shining
It's just so damn bright
But our souls lurk on the border
Of eternal night
You say that you're God
And you think you're divine
But you're feeling my poison
As it creeps up your spine
There's a chill in the air
And it's drawing so near
Can you feel your heart beating
Cuz you're living in fear?

I'm in my wooden box
And it's so serene
In this underworld
I'm reigning supreme
Although you sense my hands
Ripping at your soul
You go around lying
Saying your life's so whole

Everything's quiet
And fire's gone away
No one's talking
Cuz there's nothing to say
The trees are all sickly
And the rivers are dead
But I'm still hungry
And have yet to be fed
I'm leaving you out
And alone in the cold
Tell me how does it feel
Having no one to hold?

I'm in my wooden box
And you can't see my grin
As your warm blood
Dribbles all down my chin
I just have to kill you
Cuz you're holding my heart
And I won't find peace
Till death do us part.
