Mortal Coil
Lyrics
Coke bleached stains of
Blood on the street
The rain washes red
A heart no longer beats
As it coils and pools
All around your feet
What price would you pay
For a chance at death to cheat
Living life thorough adrenaline bursts
Hope for the best
But fearing the worst
Stuck between depression and denial
Love is a fragile thing
When you're in love it makes you sing
But when it falls apart
It just as quickly breaks your heart
But somehow through the tragedy and pain
The beauty of life shines through again
Shed the mortal coil
For eternity and beyond
Like ocean waves
A tempest at sea
Conflict and war
A ceaseless frenzy
The conquering
Get conquered it seems
Useless at times
To resist higher dreams
Living life thorough adrenaline bursts
Hope for the best
But fearing the worst
Stuck between depression and denial
Love is a fragile thing
When you're in love it makes you sing
But when it falls apart
It just as quickly breaks your heart
But somehow through the tragedy and pain
The beauty of life shines through again
Shed the mortal coil
For eternity and beyond
