Death’s Hand

Lyrics

[Intro: Joel Birch] I held Death's hand this evening [Verse 1: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch] Can't keep my heart from beating Can't keep my throat from screaming There has to be another way for me to keep on living [Pre-Chorus: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch] I held Death's hand this evening Closed my eyes, now I'm dreaming I promise I won't leave here "Don't let me die," I'm fucking screaming [Chorus: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch] 'Cause I've got more life left to live Got some promises to keep To all the hearts that carried me Out from the ocean deep I've had to do some searching To understand the reasons For every selfish feeling... I held Death's hand this evening [Verse 2: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch] Now my lungs are failing, and my heart is fading My mind is taking me so far away I'm dreaming For every selfish reason, I tipped the bottle drowning I'll pour my heart out to stop you from leaving [Pre-Chorus: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch] I held Death's hand this evening Closed my eyes, now I'm dreaming I promise I won't leave here "Don't let me die," I'm fucking screaming [Chorus: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch] 'Cause I've got more life left to live Got some promises to keep To all the hearts that carried me Out from the ocean deep I've had to do some searching To understand the reasons For every selfish feeling... I held Death's hand this evening [Bridge: Joel Birch] You're the ones that kept me going I owe you this much You gave me the strength to say "Hey, Death, get fucked" You're the ones that kept me going I owe you this much You gave me the strength to say "Hey, Death, get fucked" [Outro: Joel Birch] Now my lungs are failing, and my heart is fading My mind is taking me so far away I'm dreaming Now my lungs are failing, and my heart is fading My mind is taking me
