lyrics

It comes at night:
Fear of death fever.
Like a mongrel's bite
It seeps into my pores.
It chokes the light.
It puts me through the ringer
And I drop my fight
Like shoes at the door.

It comes in my sleep.
The nightmare bubbles
Like black tar in the heat.
It bursts like a bomb in war.
It cuts me deep.
It falls like rubble
And I'm knocked off my feet
Like a kid onto the floor.

(CHORUS)
Death cannot win, I know it,
Even when it comes at night.
Death cannot win, I know it.
Do I know it?

I need to breathe.
I know we'll all die inevitably.
Can we still be
Happy in the between?

(CHORUS)
Death cannot win, I know it,
Even when it comes at night.
Death cannot win, I know it.
Do I know it?
Death cannot win, I know it.
Death can't be the winner in life.
Death cannot win, I know it.
Do I know it?
