Death For My Birthday Lyrics

Let me guide you through the story of a boy and his curse<br />
Tiny diamond in a stroller with his first step chasing the hearse<br />
Sipping at a cup that's halfway filled<br />
But looking forward to the day he pays that drinking bill<br />
<br />
There's no peace, there's no quiet on this earth<br />
He could find it nestled tightly in that womb beneath the dirt.<br />
Hurt no more when he turned twenty four<br />
He wrote to nail to God's front door that said<br />
<br />
I want death, death for my birthday<br />
I want death, death in the worst way<br />
I want death, death for my birthday<br />
Don't get me wrong<br />
<br />
'Cause I love life but life has a boyfriend<br />
Bless my soul, I'm out to destroy them<br />
I want death, death for my birthday<br />
For my birthday<br />
<br />
He found a high paying job and the love of his life<br />
He rode a roller coaster ride of lust on their wedding night<br />
They made a baby in unmentionable ways<br />
He was ungrateful as a man could be on that blessed day<br />
<br />
And underneath he thought this is all a phase<br />
Just a blip in the existence of a structure vast and great<br />
Prayed each night to his cross of charm<br />
For the one thing he couldn't afford, just to buy the farm<br />
<br />
I want death, death for my birthday<br />
I want death, death in the worst way<br />
I want death, death for my birthday<br />
Don't get me wrong<br />
<br />

'Cause I love life but life has a boyfriend<br />
Bless my soul, I'm out to destroy them<br />
I want death, death for my birthday<br />
For my birthday<br />
<br />
I'll never lose another friend again<br />
Or watch them start a war<br />
That's fought for ideals that are dead<br />
I'll never have an argument again<br />
<br />
Because my dust will be your salt<br />
My blood will hydrate you all<br />
My heart will be your meal<br />
And I won't ride the cycle of the way<br />
It kills to think and feel, no more, no<br />
<br />
I want death, death for my birthday<br />
I want death, death in the worst way<br />
I want death, death for my birthday<br />
Don't get me wrong<br />
<br />
'Cause I love life but life has a boyfriend<br />
Bless my soul, I'm out to destroy them<br />
I want death, death for my birthday<br />
For my birthday<br />
<br />
One sweet day his heart ceased to beat<br />
He fell so fast beneath all our feet<br />
Through bugs and snakes<br />
Last words he had to say were<br />
<br />
Help me claw my way to the surface<br />
Oh, sweet Lord, You know I deserve this<br />
Just one more, just one more birthday

Let me guide you through the story of a boy and his curse<br />
Tiny diamond in a stroller with his first step chasing the hearse<br />
Sipping at a cup that's halfway filled<br />
