Lyrics

Deathlessness

[Verse]

What do you have

Hiding in that sarcophagus?

What do you see?

Every pattern looks like a swastika

What kind of mercy

Exists in deathlessness?

How do we breathe

In our breathlessness?

How can I learn

When I make my body into violence?

What do I bring to the table

When all we eat is desperate?

Can you erase it with a magnet?

[Bridge]

There was a chainsaw fight, I saw it at the waterpark

And though the sun is up, it's still getting dark

[Outro]

How can I live

Never knowing the beauty of forgiveness?

How can I live

Without ever knowing the beauty of forgiveness?

AJJ - Good Luck Everybody

Something of a crowd-pleaser, despite the dark subject matter.
