lyrics

I look up at the ceiling, it stays the same
That's the thing with cycles: things never change
Now in ev'ry heaven & hell, i plead my case
Kicked back to purgatory and there is no escape

And we'll dance dance dance dance dance upon our graves
And they'll scream scream scream scream scream our names
As we claw claw claw claw at the pearly gates
'cause there's no no no no no, there's no escape

I just wanted to know that everything i've been told
Is a lie i tell myself because old is all i get
And age is steeped in regret, stronger how long it gets
I'm a forgotten 'C' an option most heavenly

And we'll dance dance dance dance dance upon our graves
And they'll scream scream scream scream scream our names
As we claw claw claw claw at the pearly gates
'cause there's no no no no no, there's no escape
