lyrics

'cause I don't wanna go that way
even if the trains are late
even if the roads are safe
I don't wanna go that way

'cause I don't wanna go that way
even with the options weighed
even if the seams have frayed
I don't wanna go that way

the reaper's fingers in the till
said “have you paid your bills?”
said “I was never asking for your life,
I was only asking for your time, this time,
this time”

so don't come home with blood on your hands
and expect me to want the truth
and don't come home with blood on your hands
and expect me to want the truth

'cause I don't wanna go that way
even if the game is played,
even if your temper strays
I don't wanna go that way

there were bodies in the attic
there were bodies in the floor
there were bodies in the ceilings and the doors
there were bodies in the garage
there were bodies in the car
there were bodies in the silence and the dark
