PM if the lyrics are wrong, I haven't checked them yet.

Lyrics:

Let me guide you through the story of a boy and his curse
Tiny, diamond in his stroller with his first step chasing the hearse
Sipping from a cup that's half-way filled
Been looking forward to the day he pays that drinking bill
There's no peace there's no quiet on this earth
He can finally nestle tightly in that womb beneath the dirt
Hurt no more, and when he turned 24
He wrote a note to nail to god's front door that said:

I want death, Death for my birthday
I want death, death in the worst way
I want death, death for my birthday.
Don't get me wrong cause
I love life, but life has a boyfriend
And bless my soul, I'm out to destroy them
I want death, Death for my birthday
For my birthday

Found a highpaying job, and the love of his life
He rode a rollercoaster ride of lust on their wedding night
They made a baby in unmentionable ways
He was ungrateful as a man could be on that blessed day
And underneath he thought 'This is all a phase'
Just a blip in the existance of a structure, vast and Great
Pray each night to his cross of a charm
for the one thing he couldn't afford, just to buy the farm

I want death, Death for my birthday
I want death, death in the worst way
I want death, death for my birthday.
Don't get me wrong cause
I love life, but life has a boyfriend
And bless my soul, I'm out to destroy them
I want death, Death for my birthday
For my birthday

Never lose another friend, again
Watch them start a war thats fought for ideals that are dead
Never have an arguement again
Because my dust will be your salt
My blood will hydrate you all
My heart will be your meal
And I won't write the cycle of the way it kills to think and feel, no more, no.

I want death, Death for my birthday
I want death, death in the worst way
I want death, death for my birthday.
Don't get me wrong cause
I love life, but life has a boyfriend
And bless my soul, I'm out to destroy them
I want death, Death for my birthday
For my birthday

One sweet day, his heart ceased to beat
he fell so fast beneath all our feet
Through bugs and snakes,
the last words he had to say were:
"Help me claw away to the surface
Oh sweet lord you know I deserve this
Just one more, just one more birthday..."

  • i love the part with the cute little xylophones. its cute and chilling <3

  • @Albakurky1096 The grass is always greener on the other side.

  • The ending was haunting. Like..oh my goodness. I felt chills.

  • the "guy" is max bemis. 

  • ^ Yes. That is the entire point of the song.

  • WOOT FOR BOOBIES!!!

  • I read somewhere that the point behind this song is that people are too obsessed with death and the after life and how if we are "good" all through out our life it won't matter anymore cuz we'll go to heaven so the guy in the song goes through life without feeling any of his emotions too strongly and thinking life "is just a phase" in a greater scheme of things

  • @jacobluvzmelz That's completely wrong.

  • @aarsty101 love that song. "This song is called.. It's A Metaphor, Fool!"

  • @Albakurky1096

    Its the story of life. ^_^
