Stratford - Danzig Howl Lyrics

First born failure in a family full of smiles
Hold on to a hollow light with self-imposed denial
Take a hatchet to the family tree
Hack the life, the life out of me
Black sheep, the feeling creeps
Just turn me loose and watch me seethe

Open wounds
Muffled screams
Agony takes flight on leather wings

My skin is crawling
My blood is never thawing
I'm losing all of my ethics
How could I be so pathetic
Smash my brains into the wall
I swear this isn't my downfall
Digging past rock bottom
Six more feet until I'm f*cking forgotten

Open wounds
Muffled screams
Agony takes flight on leather wings
Pale grass
Beneath bare trees
Feeling most at home amongst the dying things

First born failure in a family full of smiles
Hold on to a hollow light with self-imposed denial
Take a hatchet to the family tree
Hack the life out of me
Black sheep, the feeling creeps
Just turn me loose and watch me seethe
My skin is f*cking crawling
My blood is never thawing
I'm losing my ethics
How could I be so pathetic
Smash my brain into the wall
I swear this isn't my downfall
Digging past rock bottom
Six more feet until I'm f*cking forgotten

Hold me down
Rip me apart
God I hate my ego
Passing self-loathing as art
Hold me down
Rip me apart
Destroying the shallow reflection that's in place of a heart

Open wounds
Muffled screams
Agony takes flight on leather wings
Pale grass
Beneath bare trees
Feeling most at home amongst the dying things
