SirKit - Scythe Lyrics

My demons come alive, thinkin there's a show
Guess that's how it goes, you reap what you sow
The seeds I planted, coiled all around me
Almost like Robin getting trapped by ivy
Need an IV to go into my vein
Get the morphine, help me forget the pain
The dark closes in, clouding up the sea
I'm drownin in, under the debris I see
Shadows drawin in, creepin around the corner
I think that is death, followed by the coroner
It could happen any day, it could happen any night
The thought that it is something I cannot fight
Comin with his Scythe, to take his toll
That is just his roll, its nothin personal
I hope it's merciful, but its irreversible
The thing he brings, is quite terminal
But when he comes, I will not fear
Stare him in the face, never shed a single tear
Cause the life I live, I live to the fullest
So I'll look into the barrel as I take this bullet
He can tear me apart, limb from limb
The future I see is no longer grim
There's a light comin down, almost like a tunnel
In the face of death, I will never buckle
The scythes are comin, they're the bringers of death
Look'em in the eyes and you run out of breath
They're not cutting grass, they cutting off heads
The sight of this puts a shiver in your legs
The scythes are comin, and they're comin for you
Look inside yourself and ask what you're gonna do?
Are you gonna run? Are you gonna fight?
Better choose quick cause your life is on line
My demons came alive? No they are alive
I walk and talk with them every day of my life
Never knowin when they're gonna creep inside my brain
And tell me how to walk, how to talk, again, again, again
They walk past each other, laugh and chuckle
And think its subtle, when they cause me trouble
Takin a knuckle, to my face
It's a daily struggle, I cannot wait
Until the day that all this come to an end
Scythe around my neck has now become my friend
I wanna help him out, press it against my neck
But if I do that then my demons win
That cannot happen, I'm depended on
By a whole lot of people, so if I'm gone
Then what would they do? What would they think?
I didn't love them? My feelins were fake?
"Shh let them win and you will know relief"
But that thinkings selfish, please tell me, I may get relief, but what would that achieve?
"The battle you have, within yourself, it will all finally cease?"
Is that what I want? To be at peace? Are these my thoughts? Are you me?
My eyes glaze over and I'm losing control
I keep freefalling further into the unknown
It's almost pitch black, I can't see a thing
I see the red eyes and start to swing
But I'm swingin at air, it is so unfair
That they control my mind, its too much for me to bear
I can't even fight it, should I even try?
This feelin I have I can't deny
So maybe I'll embrace it, let it take me in
Maybe that's the way it's always been
I didn't notice, that I was broken
Overloaded, losin focus
Nothin can stop me, I'm at my lowest point
The scythes are here holdin me, at gunpoint
But let them shoot cause I will live
Death to my demons that I forgive
You are me and I am you
That's just something we gotta work through
Forever at our door makin our heart bleed
Tryin to figure out just what we need
Is it company or is it puppetry?
To have that choice is a luxury
Makin me move my arms and legs
I need you to leave and get up out my head
The scythes are comin, they're the bringers of death
Look'em in the eyes and you run out of breath
They're not cutting grass, they cutting off heads
The sight of this puts a shiver in your legs
The scythes are comin, and they're comin for you
Look inside yourself and ask what you're gonna do?
Are you gonna run? Are you gonna fight?
Better choose quick, they're comin for your life
The scythes are comin, they're the bringers of death
Look'em in the eyes and you run out of breath
They're not cutting grass, they cutting off heads
The sight of this puts a shiver in your legs
The scythes are comin, and they're comin for you
Look inside yourself and ask what you're gonna do?
Are you gonna run? Are you gonna fight?
Better choose quick, they're comin for your life
