[Verse 1]
Black coat
Blood on my cuffs
Names in my pocket
Written in dust
Cold rain
Pooling in my hands
Every debt I've taken
Turns to sand
I walk through the smoke
Like I planned this all
But the devil in the doorway
Knows I still crawl
[Chorus]
They call me the immortal man
But I die every night in my sleep (oh)
Faces at the foot of my bed
All the vows that I couldn't keep
If mercy is a loaded gun
Then pull it
Love
Don’t let it jam
I’m cursed to outlive what I’ve done
Still they call me the immortal man
[Verse 2]
Sharp smile
Pinned to my face
Family on my shoulders
Built from graves
One word
Whispered in a bar
Turns to a funeral
Not that far
I drink to the ghosts
Who would toast me back
If the river wasn’t rising
Over every track
[Chorus]
They call me the immortal man
But I die every night in my sleep (hey)
Faces at the foot of my bed
All the vows that I couldn’t keep
If mercy is a loaded gun
Then pull it
Love
Don’t let it jam
I’m cursed to outlive what I’ve done
Still they call me the immortal man
[Bridge]
What good is breathing
When the world stops turning for you
What good is leaving
When the past keeps walking in two
I laid my heart on the table
Traded it all for a plan
Now I’m alone at the head of the fable
Too scared to be just a man
[Chorus]
They call me the immortal man
But I die every night in my sleep
Names are etched in the back of my hand
Every promise I failed to keep
If mercy is a loaded gun
Then pull it
Love
Don’t let it jam
Let the legend sink in the river
Let me drown
Not an immortal man
