When you came here
You asked me
What it sounded like
When my name came from your mouth
It sounded like death was knocking at the door
I close my eyes and all I see is fire
He came knocking again
I close my eyes and all I saw was fire
And everyone's name burning on paper
Take my name
Take me to the ghostly plains
Let me live safely
I queued up
In a line for my dream
With all the people who shared my hopes
Well that's not fair at all
So I swapped the line
Picked up a new I'll do better next time
And he came knocking with a wooden plank
And nearly tore the door off the hinges
And I close my eyes
I feel I've lived a thousand times
And as I start to feel alive with fear
I hear the first second of the rest of my life
Tick away on the wall
