THE DIVINE RIGHT OF KINGS LYRICS

"Deadbeat"

Oh what a slaughter has been left in your wake
Our bodies lay disfigured, left to weather in the rain
Unapologetic broken disarray
What have you done, What have you done?

Do you read me loud and clear?

I’ve, sold my soul, for much less, than it is worth
‘Cause it’s your cancerous love that has caused my lungs to burst

Your brilliance is matched by the arson you bestow
Puppeteering spinal chords, refusing to let them go
Hesitation has no bounds
Will our bodies ever be found?

This guilt strewn tirade of exposure, has shed light on the ways of your worth
I thought I’d known you all too well
Distance only brought us closer somehow

Oh my god what have we here?
A serpentine amidst the honest
Who’s teeth sink through the roughest skin
This infection will sure do me in

In spite of the intentions
It’s impossible to see through the smoke
We lost the light that guides us home

We came alive in the midst of the storm
And poured salt on our wounds
But these veins bled out too soon

As weakened waters flow you held our hearts in your hand
Blocking every artery, to cauterize them just like a dam
Oh how I wish I could find the strength
To delouse your carcinogenic plague

Stillborn, understated wrath of your blood hungry measures to keep me at bay
Is this what you had in mind?

My head’s distraught from a vision that sooths my weary heart

Oh what a slaughter you’ve left in your wake
