Dead Man Breathing

[Verse 1] I've grown colder Than any other stone turned Than any road crossed on my way I've grown colder Than earth underfoot Than wind at my back Now scabbed and cracked I've grown colder Just like your father And his father before Through the endless storm I've grown colder Than I ever was, beyond my beliefs Will this ever cease? [Chorus 1] It's begun Choose your hell You are no exception I don't want to be another dead man breathing [Chorus 2] Cold I've grown colder than I ever was before Cold Now all I see are dead men breathing [Chorus 3] For those who once rejoiced I've grown cold For those who feared and hated I've grown cold Who can't escape their grief I've grown cold Don't want to be another dead man breathing [Verse 2] I've grown colder Than the mercy of who's looking down Upon the silent graves Of those who paid with sins I've grown colder Than all those who wasted trust Opening the gate Without acknowledging the cost [Chorus 4] It's begun Choose your hell You are no exception Hands cannot drown the sounds of better men screaming It's begun Live to tell Don't deny the instinct I don't want to be another dead man breathing [Bridge] It's begun Choose your hell You are no exception Hands cannot drown the sounds of better men screaming [Pre-Chorus] Don't want to be another dead man breathing I'll curse and fight till my heart stops beating Until my heart stops beating [Chorus 4] It's begun Choose your hell You are no exception Hands cannot drown the sounds of better men screaming It's begun Live to tell Don't deny the instinct I don't want to be another dead man breathing
