Verse
Death Comes Callin
Jeremy Hurtt•
no glory left now
Verse 1
The fog rolls slowly,As if it whollyHides the key to this door that I've foundA dog howls in mourning,Or maybe for morningThere's little difference to me in its sound As a stiff breezeClears mist from the treesI reflect on the gift I've been givenThough many out there,Never will careI accept the shift in my livin
Chorus
Death comes callin Oh DeathComesCallin
Verse 2
Details pour outMore whisper than shoutAnd the full vision exposed to me lingersUntil I am blindAt least in my mindFrom the brush of her cold dreary fingers Steel meets with fleshAnd painted in redThe dust of a city, death greetingI feel like a foolThe season's new toolBut still I desire a meeting
Chorus
Death comes callin Oh DeathComesCallin
Verse 3
It's technically workGuarding pathways of dirtWhole neighborhoods missing a purposeBack home tempers flareFor people not there"Why can't they just shut up and serve us?" On the day I turned twelveI sat by myselfAnd decided I would live foreverAnd there in a landOf violent commandFrom my own wishes I eternally severed
Chorus
Death comes callin Oh DeathComesCallin
Verse 4
A cloud now approachesReplaces the roachesScurrying across that brown canvasWe'll gather the piecesOf our shattered deceased, yesBut there's no glory left now for them to hand us I ask for no pityI still dwell in this cityI just ask that you remember the fallenMy mind is all fogfor it clears just to hogMyself with the truth, death comes callin
Chorus
Death comes callin Death comes callin Oh DeathComesCallin DeathComesCallin
