Your Death Songtext
von Paris, Texas

Before I left, we looked at hooks and losing your old box
The silver gone, the red of rust was better
And we talked about your brother, the crook who broke your window
And who stole the show at your own father′s funeral
I wasn't there, but I cried for you

You stole from death and from life at the same time
And that′s why I, I never want to live my life
Saying things like, "I wish I, I knew what always happened to you"
And this is what your death would be like
(Crash out alone, get out alone)
And this is what your death would be like
(Drink out alone, and kill out alone)

Another lie, an epitaph was scratched into my head
And it replaced what common sense I had left
And I found it out with a fake name and Spanish accent
And a story practiced before calling your parents
And you know, I think they knew


I planned my death and my life at the same time
And that's why I, I never want to live my life
Saying things like, "I wish I, I knew what always happened to you"
And this is what your death would be like
(Feel out alone, steal out alone)
And this is what your death would be like
(Drive out alone, and be alone)

'Cause one month wasn′t long enough to put yourself inside a box
I wanted you to hear this song that love will not a requiem
Say things I could never say, or at least could not explain
It′s for you as well for them that love will not a requiem
(Clean out alone, clean out alone)
(Drink out alone, dream out alone)
(Sleep out alone, sleep out alone)
(Drive out alone)

And that's why I, I never want to live my life
Saying things like, "I wish I, I knew what always happened to you"
And this is what your death would be like
And this is what your death would be like
And this is what your death would be like

′Cause one month wasn't long enough to put yourself inside a box
I wanted you to hear this song that love will not a requiem
Say things I could never say, or at least could not explain
It′s for you as well for them that love will not a requiem
