lyrics
Verse:
C Amin F x4
I still have nightmares so often that I can’t call them dreams
I’ve taken every pill and tried everything to just help me sleep
Now I’m so tired
Tonight will it be trick or treat?
I lost my mind in a game of hide and seak
Prechorus:
G Amin F x2
Now I’m on my way out
Verse
And when I’m gone I’ll still exist in the lights that only shadows see
The echos recall the thought I’m alive if only momentarily
Then I weep and mourn the grips of the young lost to the shapes that formed on the tips of your tongue
When you said this is it
Well if this is it
It’s the darkest Halloween
Prechorus
Now I’m on my way out
Prechorus 2:
Amin C F
Amin G F
Mama I found meaning in the words you left behind
And maybe that’s why
Chorus:
C F
G Amin F C G F
x2
Did you fear the wrath of the reaper
The pulse of your finger on that trigger
The life that cost the love you traded for lust
Did you fear your youth escaping when god put that gun in your hand
You swore as long as you lived he would never forgive those sins
Post chorus:
G Bb Db
So when the reaper calls will you go with him?
Bridge:
D G Bmin A G Bb x2
I’m down and out
I’m breaking down
Waiting on you to come around
Post bridge:
C F
G Amin F C G F G
When death is only a heartbeat away
When he comes don’t be afraid
Chorus 2:
C F Amin G F x2
Did you fear the wrath of the reaper
The pulse of your finger on that trigger
The life that cost the love you traded for lust
Did you fear your youth escaping when god put that gun in your hand
You swore as long as you lived he would never forgive those sins
