|
Let me guide you through the story of a boy and his curse |
|
Tiny diamond in a stroller with his first step chasing the hearse |
|
Sipping at a cup that's halfway filled |
|
But looking forward to the day he pays that drinking bill |
|
There's no peace, there's no quiet on this earth |
|
He could find it nestled tightly in that womb beneath the dirt. |
|
Hurt no more when he turned twenty four |
|
He wrote to nail to |
|
God's front door that said |
|
I want death, death for my birthday |
|
I want death, death in the worst way |
|
I want death, death for my birthday |
|
Don't get me wrong' |
|
Cause I love life but life has a boyfriend |
|
Bless my soul, |
|
I'm out to destroy them |
|
I want death, death for my birthday |
|
For my birthday |
|
He found a high paying job and the love of his life |
|
He rode a roller coaster ride of lust on their wedding night |
|
They made a baby in unmentionable ways |
|
He was ungrateful as a man could be on that blessed day |
|
And underneath he thought this is all a phase |
|
Just a blip in the existence of a structure vast and great |
|
Prayed each night to his cross of charm |
|
For the one thing he couldn't afford, just to buy the farm |
|
I want death, death for my birthday |
|
I want death, death in the worst way |
|
I want death, death for my birthday |
|
Don't get me wrong' |
|
Cause I love life but life has a boyfriend |
|
Bless my soul, |
|
I'm out to destroy them |
|
I want death, death for my birthday |
|
For my birthday |
|
I'll never lose another friend again |
|
Or watch them start a war |
|
That's fought for ideals that are dead |
|
I'll never have an argument again |
|
Because my dust will be your salt |
|
My blood will hydrate you all |
|
My heart will be your meal |
|
And I won't ride the cycle of the way |
|
It kills to think and feel, no more, no |
|
I want death, death for my birthday |
|
I want death, death in the worst way |
|
I want death, death for my birthday |
|
Don't get me wrong' |
|
Cause I love life but life has a boyfriend |
|
Bless my soul, |
|
I'm out to destroy them |
|
I want death, death for my birthday |
|
For my birthday |
|
One sweet day his heart ceased to beat |
|
He fell so fast beneath all our feet |
|
Through bugs and snakes |
|
Last words he had to say were |
|
Help me claw my way to the surface |
|
Oh, sweet |
|
Lord, You know |
|
I deserve this |
|
Just one more, just one more birthday |
