Violate
Bring me back to life
I'm tired of laying here, below just out of sight
Tell me I'll forget, just one more time
These keys above my bed, were always rusted and entangled
And the kind words that you said were like a noose hung from my hangups
But Luca has foreseen in me
For him, the great enemy
The one who haunts my waking hour
You smell like burnt leaves
You look like death in a hoodie
And a rule to violate
You smell like ether
Death in a red dress let the dead rest
You violate, You violate
And so I shot the children first
They stared me down and they stuck around
In the ashes I inhaled
And now i'm buried to my neck
in grains of golden gorgeous death
They asked me to protect and I have failed
But Luca has foreseen in me
For him, the great enemy
The one who haunts my waking hour
You smell like burnt leaves
You look like death in a hoodie
And a rule to violate
You smell like ether
Death in a red dress let the dead rest
You violate, You violate
And the kid said that you wrote him a letter
You can keep cutting up, but we know you're not cut for the weather
And I can't stop it because the rain is all i know
If you're gonna leave just go, If you're gonna leave just go
You smell like burnt leaves
You look like death in a hoodie
And a rule to violate
You smell like ether
Death in a red dress let the dead rest
You violate, You violate
I'm tired of laying here, below just out of sight
Tell me I'll forget, just one more time
These keys above my bed, were always rusted and entangled
And the kind words that you said were like a noose hung from my hangups
But Luca has foreseen in me
For him, the great enemy
The one who haunts my waking hour
You smell like burnt leaves
You look like death in a hoodie
And a rule to violate
You smell like ether
Death in a red dress let the dead rest
You violate, You violate
And so I shot the children first
They stared me down and they stuck around
In the ashes I inhaled
And now i'm buried to my neck
in grains of golden gorgeous death
They asked me to protect and I have failed
But Luca has foreseen in me
For him, the great enemy
The one who haunts my waking hour
You smell like burnt leaves
You look like death in a hoodie
And a rule to violate
You smell like ether
Death in a red dress let the dead rest
You violate, You violate
And the kid said that you wrote him a letter
You can keep cutting up, but we know you're not cut for the weather
And I can't stop it because the rain is all i know
If you're gonna leave just go, If you're gonna leave just go
You smell like burnt leaves
You look like death in a hoodie
And a rule to violate
You smell like ether
Death in a red dress let the dead rest
You violate, You violate
