lyrics

49 Days

You cannot escape from the things that are meant to be
You cannot erase what you did from my mind
I search for devotion behind what you said to me
The air in your words, that was all I would find
49
And I would trust the words of a stranger
before I trust the look in your eye
All the times you put me in danger
All the ways you fill me with lies

You will bend at the end the barrel
You will bleed at the tip of the knife
what you felt in your heart never mattered
7 days 7 weeks 7 times gives new purpose, new meaning to life

And I would trust the words of a stranger
before I trust a look in your eye
All the ways you put me in danger
All the times you fill me with lies
And I would trust the words of a stranger

You speak of loyalty
You call me family
The things you promised me
Your words ringing empty
You're fucking dead me now

In 49 days

By the pricking of needles
By the pricking of my thumbs
Reaching out to the wicked
See how quickly wicked runs
And a slash of the throat
makes it all go away
With this purification
Trading pain for more pain

I look at your names
Cross them out until one remains
You can do things the hard way
But I do things with care
You will fear what I bring
You'll remember I hold the ring
All the princes are crying because they can't be king

Unlock the door I'll be right there.....

in 49 days.
