Understanding Decay Songtext
von The Dillinger Escape Plan

Drag the knife across the skin
Tempted to succumb
Carving passion into flesh
Holy we′ve become

Turning lips to everyone
Giving heart to none

Running backwards
Erasing time
Seek the fire
But never die

The cradle wipes blood
Red fresh and
Through you the host has chosen a name
Call the name out
The cradle wipes blood
Red fresh and
Through you the host has chosen a name


Call the name out
Call the name out
Call the name out
Call the name
Out

I'll never be like you
Late to my own funeral

I′ll never be like you
Late to my own funeral

We'll never be so late
Like you to our funerals

I'll never be like you
Late to my own funeral

We′ll never be so late
Like you to our funerals

Push decay inside me for then I can open all the passages into the world
Push your fate inside me for then I can open all the passages to other worlds
Push decay inside me for then I can open all the passages into the world
Push your fate inside me for then I can open all the passages to other worlds
Push decay inside me for then I can open all the passages into the world
Push your fate inside me for then I can open all the passages to other worlds
