Lyrics
The world has turned and held me here In a deathgrip
Don't hold me back now Time is the enemy You don't wanna be the one that's in front of me Right now Let's start the reckoning We're burning everything you built to the ground
The world has turned and held me here In a deathgrip
Breathe in the venom in my lungs Sink into something dangerous I tried to walk away, I forgot the feeling Guess I'm bad at giving up Always something pulling Pulling me back into myself Never put faith in someone else I was waiting for the end, I had a death wish Now I got my hands around your throat I got a deathgrip I got a deathgrip
We were kings of another time (Kings of another time) Building castles in the sky (Oh) But the dreams that you might find They could be out to get you Did we ever see the mark? Did we miss it? Are we swinging in the dark in the distance? I made good on every word I said Some things are better left undead
The world has turned and held me here In a deathgrip
Breathe in the venom in my lungs Sink into something dangerous I tried to walk away, I forgot the feeling Guess I'm bad at giving up Always something pulling Pulling me back into myself Never put faith in someone else I was waiting for the end, I had a death wish Now I got my hands around your throat I got a deathgrip
I'm never letting go I'll never lose control I got a deathgrip Yeah Deathgrip I'm never letting go Never lose control Deathgrip We're burning everything you built to the ground
Breathe in the venom in my lungs Sink into something dangerous I tried to walk away, I forgot the feeling Guess I'm bad at giving up Bad at giving up
Pulling me back into myself Never put faith in someone else I was waiting for the end, I had a death wish Now I got my hands around your throat I got a deathgrip Breathe in the venom in my lungs Sink into something dangerous I was waiting for the end, I had a death wish Now I got my hands around your throat I got a deathgrip
