Rolling with the Grim Reaper
Seat leaned back, eyes deeper
Ash on my jeans, cold ether
Black smoke twist in the heater
He said, "You scared?"
I said, "Been there"
One foot in the dark
One hand on the stair
Tongue like a blade
Mind like a fever
Every puff gone gray
Still I move cleaner
Bones in the backseat
Thorns in the seams
I been haunting my own
Half-lit dreams
Pale face grin
Like he knows my name
Every road I take
Ends in the same place
Still I laugh at the edge
Still I talk back
Still I burn slow
On a midnight track
Falling deeper
Feet in the mud
Hear that choir
Calling my blood
No turning back now
Doors got sealed
If I go under
Let it be real
Rolling with the Grim Reaper
Rolling with the Grim Reaper
I fall, I fall deeper
I fall, I fall deeper
Smoke rise higher
Choir in the dark (in the dark)
Hold me tighter
As I lose my spark
Hear that choir in the stone
Calling me home
He ain’t letting go
I’m already low
Grim Reaper ride
Grim Reaper ride
Smoke in my lungs
Cold in my spine
Grim Reaper ride
Grim Reaper ride
If I fall tonight
I fall in time
Rolling with the Grim Reaper
Black coat, cracked smile, deep sleeper
Ash on my lap, no visa
Whole crew cold, we don't need ya
Smoke in the chapel, thin and gray
I lost a year in a single day
Bones on the dash, hands stay steady
Say my name, I was never ready
He said, "Keep up," I said, "Bet"
Street got slick from the blood and sweat
Moon in the glass, teeth all chipped
I been half gone since the first time I slipped
Cemetery wind through my hoodie strings
Cold little prayers in forgotten things
Names on the stone, same dirt, same rain
I kept my grin through the bruise and pain
Reaper got jokes, but his eyes don't blink
Gave me one sip from the blackened drink
Now every step got a hollow tone
Every backseat feels like a throne
I seen saints with a crooked aim
I seen wolves try to wear my name
If the end got a mouth, let it speak
I've been dancing with it all week
Falling deeper
Feet in the mud
Hear that choir
Calling my blood
No turning back now
Doors got sealed
If I go under
Let it be real
Rolling with the Grim Reaper
Rolling with the Grim Reaper
I fall, I fall deeper
I fall, I fall deeper
Smoke rise higher
Choir in the dark (in the dark)
Hold me tighter
As I lose my spark
Hear that choir in the stone
Calling me home
He ain’t letting go
I’m already low
Grim Reaper ride
Grim Reaper ride
Smoke in my lungs
Cold in my spine
Grim Reaper ride
Grim Reaper ride
If I fall tonight
I fall in time
No crown, no prayer
Just my shadow and him
White eyes on the dash
And the room goes dim
I said, "Take your time"
He said, "Brother, I know"
Then the dark moved close
And the whole world slowed
Hush now, the night knows
Hush now, the night knows
I wore my ruin like a crown
Till the whole sky leaned down
If my heart turns to dust tonight
Let the bassline bury my fight
