Death For My Birthday

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
