Lyrics

Dying Well

[Verse 1]

There's nothing really left but this package in my coat

It's just a single focus driving me to the remote

[Pre-Chorus]

It's an on-time delivery for an unlucky son of a bitch

It goes straight into your memory, then escorts you down in a ditch

[Chorus]

'Cause I've kept this bullet for some time

Your name is etched into the side

It's vengeance by design, it's all mine

'Cause I've had this bullet for some time

Sometimes I know I blow your mind

But will it be your hand or mine? Decide

[Verse 2]

There's no one near to hear you, there's no one here to see

There's just a quick reflection on how you're choosing your company

[Pre-Chorus]

It's an on-time delivery for an unlucky son of a bitch

It goes straight into your memory, then escorts you down in a ditch

[Chorus]

'Cause I've kept this bullet for some time

Your name is etched into the side

It's vengeance by design, it's all mine

'Cause I've had this bullet for some time

Sometimes I know I blow your mind

But will it be your hand or mine? Decide
