The Dillinger Escape Plan - Baby's First Coffin Lyrics

Dear god protect us
Come on blackest heart
She stares forever
And then some never again
Polished barb wire
Smile tricks and treats
She's done
So cut her again
Gut her again
Silence tells us we're damned
Jesus we've gone and done it again
Jimmy's got a new gun in his hand
You're being a liar
I'm stealing the show
You're being a liar
I'm ready to go
How could you doubt
We would ever find out
The emperor is dead
Goodbye to god
Dead so long embrace defeat
You know we both agreed to it
Stick the diamond to it
Gust of wind to the face
Never returning favors
Take the prison to the man
I could promise the world
If we could travel through time
Don't back out on me now
Relax and remember
The promise of the sign
I wish you could see yourself now
You look at me like a child
The way you glide across the room
Instrument of seduction
Let go of it, Rapunzel
Let it down
Wait for the signal
Then bring it down
With a smile, now
Become the conductor
The way you slide across the room
How wonderful the connection
Did the last kiss still taste
As good as the first
Or is this just the opening scene
Of a new play
I look at you like a child
But not at all like you looked at me
But grace is already dead
Now is the time to come
And face the master
You should never say yes
When you really mean no

Dear god protect us
Come on blackest heart
She stares forever
And then some never again
Polished barb wire
Smile tricks and treats
She's done
So cut her again
Gut her again
Silence tells us we're damned
Jesus we've gone and done it again
Jimmy's got a new gun in his hand
You're being a liar
I'm stealing the show
You're being a liar
I'm ready to go
How could you doubt
We would ever find out
The emperor is dead
Goodbye to god
Dead so long embrace defeat
You know we both agreed to it
Stick the diamond to it
Gust of wind to the face
Never returning favors
Take the prison to the man
I could promise the world
If we could travel through time
Don't back out on me now
Relax and remember
The promise of the sign
I wish you could see yourself now
You look at me like a child
The way you glide across the room
Instrument of seduction
Let go of it, Rapunzel
Let it down
Wait for the signal
Then bring it down
With a smile, now
Become the conductor
The way you slide across the room
How wonderful the connection
Did the last kiss still taste
As good as the first
Or is this just the opening scene
Of a new play
I look at you like a child
But not at all like you looked at me
But grace is already dead
Now is the time to come
And face the master
You should never say yes
When you really mean no
