My Assassin - The Bled

The sky blistered red, shot’s ring overhead

I’m scaling walls that the soldiers built to muffle out your screams

The message was dislocated, misconveyed, incinerated

In the wake of war, just listen for the flood

The arthritis in us all is choking me out

It’s killing me

Maybe you could finally be the one

Who reaches in and saves me from the flood

Collapse, this is our last chance

There’s no time for relapse

Just listen for the flood

If not us, can I just save you?

If not us, can I just save you?

Can’t you hear the bombs are calling all our old habits their own

A sniper patiently awaiting me in every catacomb

Are you scared girl?

Won’t you be my assassin?

Hunted down for the last time and carried you home

The arthritis in us all is choking me out

It’s killing me

Maybe you could finally be the one

Who reaches in and saves me from the flood

Collapse, this is our last chance

There’s no time for relapse

Just listen for the flood

If not us, can I just save you?

Bring on the love 'cause here comes the flood

Bring on the love 'cause here comes

We must have been seduced by the calm of the isle as we tied our

Wrists, our wrists too tight in the shallow, shallow, shallow

Maybe you could finally be the one

Who reaches in and saves me from the flood

Collapse, this is our last chance

There’s no time for relapse

Just listen for the flood

If not us, can I just save you?
