Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He came from the drains at dusk
Hands like rusted hooks
Picked the ones no one missed
From cracked curbs and bus stop soot
Names fell off in his mouth
Like teeth in dirty water
He dragged them past the fence
To the house with no windows
[Pre-Chorus]
Day by day
He turned the screw
Day by day
He asked the blue
[Chorus]
What is death
What is death
Say it loud
What is death
What is death
What is death
He dug too deep
And found his breath
[Verse 2]
Leather straps, iron jaws
Cold keys on a ring
Torture lit the cellar walls
With a prison-orange sting
He listened for a sign
In every broken cry
Trying to pry apart the dark
With a butcher's grin and eye
[Pre-Chorus]
Day by day
The room grew thin
Day by day
He wore his sin
[Chorus]
What is death
What is death
Say it loud
What is death
What is death
What is death
He dug too deep
And found his breath
[Bridge]
Sirens split the morning dust
Boots on rotten stairs
He turned with blood on his hands
And met the stare of flare
A thunder of badges
A storm of lead
He laughed at the ceiling
Then fell face-first dead
[Final Chorus]
What is death
What is death
Say it loud
What is death
What is death
What is death
He dug too deep
And found his breath
What is death
What is death
The streets took back
What he fed
