A PALE HORSE NAMED DEATH LYRICS

1. Lay My Soul To Waste

[Instrumental]

2. Shallow Grave

I should have never trusted you
I should have never mixed with you
Wish I had ran the other way
How could I not see all the lies
Succubus in a pretty, pretty disguise
At last this heart has finally died
And I killed you

I buried you in a shallow grave
And I place a nameless stone
I buried you in the back of my mind
And I’ll let the worms eat you

I should have never fell in love
She devil, that’s taken all my pride
I am the fool that’s fallen down
I laid with a dog with fleas
Now I’ve got, got your disease
It’s my pleasure, making you bleed
And I killed you

I buried you in a shallow grave
And I place a nameless stone
I buried you in the back of my mind
And I’ll let the worms eat you

Three feet deep and covered with leaves
No one is here, here to grieve
Your lifeless body is freezing cold
No one is here to take you home

I buried you in a shallow grave
And I place a nameless stone
I buried you in the back of my mind
And I’ll let the worms eat you

3. The Need In You

I find you in your corner, yearning for me
Sobriety has left you, begging please
I was sent here to you, to break you down
I am Lucifer, bring you your broken dreams

Chasing that dragon in you, across the sky
I’ll help you with your problems, deep inside
Let me push you right over there, over the edge
I’ll help you burn the spoon,
Bring you your overdose

I am the needle in you
Anti-Christ before your eyes
I am the poison in you
Assist in your suicide

Please god forgive me
I have sinned again

I find you dead and bloated
Fed your disease
Asphyxiated from your swollen tongue
I came and brought to you, your demise
I’ll take all the credit for,
Bring you your suicide

I am the needle in you
Anti-Christ before your eyes
I am the poison in you
Assist in your suicide

4. In The Sleeping Death

Inside my tomb, feel all alone
Grabbing the razor, as I cut to the bone
Lay here in silence, listen to drops
Watch the blood flow –
Watch till it stops

With my broken heart,
So sad I’ve got to go away
As I lay and take my last breath
In the sleeping death

As I lay in, pool of my blood
Life is passing before my eyes
Forget the times and leave all the past
Forever sleep, forever gone

With my broken heart,
So sad I’ve got to go away
As I lay and take my last breath
In the sleeping death

As they bring me down
In the sleeping death

With my broken heart,
So sad I’ve got to go away
As I lay and take my last breath
In the sleeping death

5. Killer By Night

Family man by the day
Killer by the night
I’ve been living a double life
And I guess I’ll be that other guy tonight
And take a life

Hey little girl you better run from me
Lover by day, killer by the night

Lightning in one hand, a gun in the other
Driving down 87 to kill me another
And I got a long list on the back of my hand
And your name is in high demand

Hey little girl you better run from me
Lover by day, killer by the night

Got these urges in the midst of my dreams
I’ve got visions playing scary scenes
With all my fingers wrapped around your neck
Around your neck

Hey little girl you better run from me
Lover by day, killer by the night

All my shadows follow me
Into my heartless therapy
Just to watch you, watch you bleed
Just to hear you, hear you scream

Body bag in the back of my truck
You know you just had some shitty luck
When you meet a guy like me, a guy like me
God won’t hear you when you’re begging please

6. Growing Old

Every day I grow older and older I do
I can see the lines on my face
One more white hair on my head
Thousand mile stare in my eyes

Growing older and older I am
My buried bones turn to dust under the earth

I can barely stand up out of my chair
Deep in my veins flows my disease
My nails have turned yellow and grown real long
A figment of what was once a young man

Growing older and older I am
My buried bones turn to dust under the earth

When I was a boy…
When I was a boy I thought I would live on forever
When I was a boy I thought I would live on forever

As I lay cold and stiff in my box
Funeral precession follows behind
They lower me down in the ground
A bitter sweet goodbye to those left alive

Growing older and older I am
My buried bones turn to dust under the earth

7. Dead Of Winter

We are snowflakes
Drifting to the end
We are snowflakes
Drifting to the end

Like leaves falling
Off the trees of winter
The sun goes down
And you never come around
The moon fades away
And the stars are blowing up
Like the leaves on the trees
In the winter we die

We are snowflakes
Drifting to the end
We are snowflakes
Drifting to the end

Like leaves falling
Off the trees of winter
The sun goes down
And you never come around
The moon fades away
And the stars are blowing up
Like the leaves on the trees
In the winter we die

8. Devil Came With A Smile

Hey son gotta get on the gun
You’re gonna go real far with that black guitar
I’ll tell you what, if you wanna be smart
Just sign with me and I’ll make you a star

Devil came to me with a smile
He said sign on the dotted line
I’ll make you rich and I’ll make you famous
I’ll put you in a place that’s shameless

Right now in the back of the bus
I got lines of coke and sinful lust
I sold my soul to get to the top
Number one on the American rock charts

Devil came to me with a smile
He said sign on the dotted line
I’ll make you rich and I’ll make you famous
I’ll bring you girls that are contagious

This week I fell off hard
The label dropped me and I lost my car
I overdosed twice and did some time
All because I had to be a rock star

Devil came to me with a smile
He said sign on the dotted line
I said what happened to being famous
He’s got plenty of new replacements

Why did I have to
Believe in someone like you
Why did I have to
Be the one that’s fooled

Devil came to me with a smile
He said sign on the dotted line

I’ll make you poor and I’ll make you homeless
I’ll put you in a grave that’s nameless

Devil came to me with a smile
He said sign on the dotted line
I’ll use you up and break you down
I’ll put you six feet in the ground

9. Day Of The Storm

Birds have gone silent
Hear all the sirens
Smell of burning fire

Trees have fallen
Demons are calling
For our demise

Children are running
Parents are screaming
Oh god is this the end ?

Tribulation
God’s frustration
He will turn a blind eye

On the day of the storm
Lightning crashes down
You can run but never hide
On that day we all die

On that day your prayers will not be heard

Sky is cracking
Raining down blood
Washed in the great flood

Through our greed
And sinful desire
We burn funeral pyres

Purged of this deadly
Black parasite
Mother has won this fight

Six billion dead and
Oceans of red
Our time has expired

On the day of the storm
Lightning crashes down
You can run but never hide
On that day we all die


And the sun breaks through the clouds
Warms my face
And the sun brings new life
Warms the ground

10. DMSLT

Every breath I take, I take in vain
Work my ass off for nothing, nothing to gain
In this fractured life I’m submersed in pain

I’ve tried day in day out again
Just to find a means to an end
As my mind crumbles and descends again

It doesn’t make sense living today
Doesn’t matter even if you pray
I just wanna lay here and let myself die

But I think there’s much more to the truth
Sadistic ways to love and abuse
An end that’s always long and overdue

Malfunction in the society
And I totally lost my sobriety
As I take this pill I wave goodbye

It doesn’t make sense living today
Doesn’t matter even if you pray
I just wanna lay here and let myself die

I was born from a bloody womb
Into a world that’s just so fucking cruel
I need to get away, I need to get away from you
Emotions that are way too fragile
Inner conflicts collide in my mind

It doesn’t make sense living today
Doesn’t matter even if you pray
I just wanna lay here and let myself die

11. Cold Dark Mourning

As we stand around your grave
Tears are falling as we pray
With red roses in our hands
We lay them down and say goodbye my friend

Anyone you ever lost
Goes up to the stars above
Everyone has gone away
They have passed away

From the womb we go to our tomb
Temporary place we all leave soon
I remember when we all laughed
All I have left are memories of past

Anyone you ever lost
Goes up to the stars above
Everyone has gone away
They have passed away

Cold dark mourning, freezes me
Empty table, empty seats
I am the last of my friends
As I wait to meet them, meet them again

Anyone you ever lost
Goes up to the stars above
Everyone has gone away
They have passed away

Cold dark mourning has taken me
Cold dark mourning is freezing me
