lyrics

You made a deal with a death
With God’s title around your neck
I’m here to tighten the knot
and write your last breath

You’ve had enough time to atone
Now it’s time for me to sit at the throne
Somehow, somebody has to make you repent
Blood and ink are one in the same
I don’t think I’ll be forgetting your name
It’s all forever marked like cement

You made a deal with a death
With God’s title around your neck
I’m here to tighten the knot
and write your last breath

The consequence of being a new holder
I’m the one that watches over your shoulder
So tell me mortal, is it worth the sacrifice?
Banished to the grounds of desolation
Your ignorance killed your salvation
Didn’t you know? Playing god has a price

You made a deal with a death
With God’s title around your neck
I’m here to tighten the knot
and write your last breath
You humans really know
How to put on a damn good show
So I’ll just sit back and watch
Until you’re all six feet below

I’ve surpassed your duties
Now this whole world better salute me
You’re just a human pest
I’m the one who knows this job best
Your time is up

You made a deal with a death
With God’s title around your neck
I’m here to tighten the knot
and write your last breath
You humans really know
How to put on a damn good show
So I’ll just sit back and watch
Until you’re all six feet below

There will never be a God as brave as me
