Burn Eternal - Handguns

Born in the later September heat

The years started catching up to me

You never thought I’d make it through 2016

Sleepless nights and endless days

Placing in my own death race

You know I’m craving failure

I’m craving failure’s taste

I drove past my old high school tonight

And thought about all the times that we would risk our lives

Didn’t care if we survived

Now the changing seasons pass me by

I can feel the bags under my eyes

But they won’t drag me down

Unless I’m six feet underground

I’m not, I’m not afraid anymore of the demons lingering inside my closet door

Out of all that I’ve done, and all that I’ve seen

I finally know what’s important to me

So if I die tonight, bury me at sea

Engulf me in flames, let me burn eternally

Wearing my mistakes embedded on my sleeves

You’re gonna have to fucking behead me to fucking make me leave

I won’t give up easily

Douse my house in kerosene

Reaper take my hand and lead me to your guillotine

As the, as the mob cheers and screams, don’t cry and don’t fucking pray for me

Out of all that I’ve done, and all that I’ve seen

I finally know what’s important to me

So if I die tonight, bury me at sea

Engulf me in flames, let me burn eternally

When the light burns out that led me home

I’ll still have somewhere left to go

When the weight of the world’s too much to hold

I’ll grab the reaper by the throat

And make sure that son of a bitch will choke

If it wasn’t for you, I’d be asleep by now

If it wasn’t for you, I’d throw in the towel

I won’t kick the chair and hang right from my throat

Without a call for help or a suicide note

Coroner’s report would read «Death Unknown»

You’ll find an empty house cause nobody is home

Out of all that I’ve done, and all that I’ve seen

I finally know what’s important to me

So if I die tonight, bury me at sea

Engulf me in flames, let me burn eternally
