I'm playing a chess game with death
Whatever it takes to survive
No one sees him so they think I'm mad
I've seen the rapture happen and
Made it out the other side
They left me with the damned but I don't mind
The grim reaper is my bitch
We've done this dance so many times
I keep a poppet in his likeness
To make sure he stays in line
I won't leave until I'm ready
And trust me I'll be fine
But to fly isn't an option
So I guess I'll have to fight because
I'm not ready to leave
And I'm not ready to see you cry
I try to sweet talk anybody who could help
But they're all silent
I won't leave until I'm ready
And trust me I'll be fine
Ill find what they're not telling me
Or whatever they're trying to hide oh no
I wish I better understood
How to make words rhyme try to
Arrange them in in a way
They sound intentional and fine enough
That if you're ever feeling lonely
And if I'm ever on your mind
You can listen to me tell you that
I love you anytime you'd like
