Only the Dead Know My Name
Lyrics
There is a place on Earth
Where the ghosts of men break through
Pistol on a hip
Another night with the outlaw blues
Wet blood smacks from head to hand
Burning days in the savage land
Bright lights dance a waltz above
Human head in a box of love
Only the dead know my name (only the dead they know my name)
Down among ember and flame (down among ember and the flame)
Only my love burns away (only my love, burns away)
As my life fades into hell (as my life fades into hell)
The bite marks on her neck
The blood that I taste
The chainsaw in my hands
The fear in their face
A mask that hides me from the night
A reflection of the pain
Creatures pulse inside my chest
Black blood in my veins
Only the dead know my name (only the dead they know my name)
Down among ember and flame (down among ember and the flame)
Only my love burns away (only my love, burns away)
As my life fades into hell (as my life fades into hell)
Hell
I'll tear you apart
As your bones break under mine
Pull you down
Under
Skeletons rot
In a crypt with unlocked doors
Beautiful death
No more (let's go)
Only the dead know my name (only the dead they know my name)
Down among ember and flame (down among ember and the flame)
Only my love burns away (only my love, burns away)
As my life fades into hell (as my life fades into hell)
Hell
