Senses Fail - Battle Hymn lyrics

rate me

And this just in

We’re killing ourselves slowly

And we’re out to sea with cloudy skies

We’ll never know the man behind the curtain

And so thank you and goodnight

And we’re going down

At least we look good

Roll out the red carpet

Cuz I will not repent

And we’re going down

At least we look good

*Not waving, but drowning

Close my eyes and start counting

I feel so cold

Slowly my lungs are filling

Maybe there’s still hope

Or maybe I’ll choke

I took the oath

I prayed for god to save me

But he left me here alone

And we’re going down

At least we look good

Roll out the red carpet

Cuz I will not repent

And we’re going down

At least we look good

*Not waving, but drowning

Close my eyes and start counting

South-bound and ready to pay for my sins

My eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the lord

I kneel down at the gates where I was born

Here's to all of my regrets, and all my good intentions

I never said that I was heaven sent

Here's to all of my regrets, and all the emptiness

There’s no time to get away

There’s no place left to hide

There’s no time to get away

There’s no place left for us to run

And we’re going down

At least we look good

Roll out the red carpet

I'm not going to repent

And we’re going down

At least we look good

*Not waving, but drowning

Close my eyes and start counting

We’ve got blood on our hands

We’ve got blood on our hands

We’re going down as I spit at the sky

With the mirror, come say we lie
