Death Rattle - Mallory Knox

Headlights in your eyes

Oh darling there are angels by your side

When you’ve lived a life in a building stood on lies

The truth will tear it down

You’re choking in your sleep

From all those promises you couldn’t keep

And this could be the match that could burn you to the ground

Deaths rattling your dreams

Your nights spent shouting at the stars and moon

You never could sleep tight with them watching over you

You never were a lonely lover holding on to me

And now you’re all alone

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are

You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are

You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far

Asleep by the riverbank your heart swells

Your lungs are alive but you’re living in hell

Dreaming only ever gave you an excuse to care for what you didn’t need

Oh well I never cared if you were there

But I loved you more than I could say

But I was scared of the repercussions I would face if you had left

But I guess it doesn’t matter now, it doesn’t matter now

Your nights spent shouting at the stars and moon

I never could sleep tight with them watching over you

Oh but you never were a lonely lover holding on to me

And now you’re all alone

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are

You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are

You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are

You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are

You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are

You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are

You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far
