Dragged Up

As the creature sleeps
I'm picking out what's left of my life
From between its crooked blackened teeth
Oh god, it looks a lot like me
Dressed up in an ill-fitting costume
With some self-destructive tendencies
Like a guilty man
The suns hanging high
My sorrows wash up with the morning tide
Lies cometh before the fall
I made a death wish to lose it all
Day by day I'm longing for the end of the world

But it's taking its sweet time
I'm longing for the end of the world

There's blood all over my hands
And the town is calling for the monster to hang
A slurring soothsayer is speaking for me
And the futures pretty fucking bleak
I burned it all down
Promises to turn to ashes in my mouth
Lies cometh before the fall
I made a death wish to lose it all
Day by day I'm longing for the end of the world

But it's taking its sweet sweet time
I'm longing for the end of the world
But it's taking its sweet sweet time

I was dragged up
I was dragged up
I was dragged up with the dregs and I let it change me
I was dragged up
I was dragged up
I was dragged up and out of the jaws of self petty
And you made me a better man

Hallelujah the drama king is dead
Sweet talked him off his high horse and then you took his head
You took his head
