Relic of the Past
You know I don't want to die
I want to last for quite awhile
Preservation is the style
Don't want to make nobody cry
So, I dress myself in white
And fill my veins, formaldehyde
Self-embalmed to forever last
Life's a relic of the past
Drain my blood from deep within
In an attempt at permanence
Now I no longer can bleed
And in that way I have been freed
The undertaker's word I heed
So, in this coffin now I rest
Surely this art has been my best
And now I wait for you my guest
Self-embalmed to forever last
Life's a relic of the past
Drain my blood from deep within
In an attempt at permanence
I've sewed my eyes shut and my lips are sealed with glue
Just trying to make myself last forever for you
So pale and cold I sit here with nothing I can do
I want to last for quite awhile
Preservation is the style
Don't want to make nobody cry
So, I dress myself in white
And fill my veins, formaldehyde
Self-embalmed to forever last
Life's a relic of the past
Drain my blood from deep within
In an attempt at permanence
Now I no longer can bleed
And in that way I have been freed
The undertaker's word I heed
So, in this coffin now I rest
Surely this art has been my best
And now I wait for you my guest
Self-embalmed to forever last
Life's a relic of the past
Drain my blood from deep within
In an attempt at permanence
I've sewed my eyes shut and my lips are sealed with glue
Just trying to make myself last forever for you
So pale and cold I sit here with nothing I can do
