Murder By Death

Murder By Death - Rumbrave lyrics

rate me

<br>

I had jade colored eyes<br />

That shimmered in the sun<br />

If you stared at them too long<br />

You'd catch a glimpse of what I'd done<br />

The faces of the damned<br />

And all the butchered lambs<br />

If I had to do it over<br />

I just would've done it slower<br />

<br />

When we meet you will see<br />

I will destroy everything of beauty<br />

When we meet then you'll know<br />

I'll be the axe that clears the forest<br />

<br />

When I had my fill and tasted every kill<br />

There was nothin' left to do<br />

But bow out of this world<br />

I heard tell of a place<br />

Where the dead walk tall and proud<br />

Where men like me were needed<br />

To thin the growing crowd<br />

Deep below the dunes I roved<br />

Past the rows past the rows<br />

Beside the acacias freshly in bloom<br />

I send men to their doom<br />

<br />

I spent those days runnin' hard and fast<br />

With no place to lay my head<br />

The sound of the rain against the roof<br />

Was loud enough to wake the dead<br />

And my legs were tired and my feet were cold<br />

But all I could do was get back on the road<br />

<br />

So I came upon a shanty town<br />

Full of bitter men<br />

Where carved into a crude wood sign<br />

It read 'welcome to the end'<br />

For a dollar you could buy a girl<br />

Of every possible design<br />

But you couldn't find one decent man<br />

Or a word spoken kind<br />

Whiskey was for supper<br />

A man couldn't ask for better!<br />

<br />

When we meet you willl see<br />

I will destroy everything of beauty<br />

When we meet then you'll know<br />

I'll be the axe that clears the forest<br />

<br />

I spent those days huntin' hard and fast<br />

With no place to lay my head<br />

And the sound of the rain against the roof<br />

Was loud enough to wake the dead<br />

And my legs were tired and my feet were cold<br />

But all I could do was get back on the road<br />

<br />

We were left alone left alone<br />

Every king on his lonely throne<br />

We were left alone left alone<br />

Every king on his lonely throne

<br><br><br><br>
