The Jericho Protocol Songtext
von The Gloom in the Corner

(welcome to... the g-)
Darkness in me; contorts me to break
Beyond the veil past mirrors, unseen
(welcome to... the g-)
I think there′s something wrong with me
Collapsing are my memories

We can tangle with devils in the white moonlight
Until it all obliviates
"Oh, honey..."

Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don't want to die
(Dance with me.)
Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don′t want to die
(Stay with me.)
Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don't want to die
(Fall with me,)
Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don't want to die
And bury me


(Die and reset; I die and reset)
My bleeding eyes
Count the times you watched me die

(How many times have I broken my mind?)
Kill me slowly endlessly
The shadows dance; they′re goring me

(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don′t want to die)
Dance with me
(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don't want to die)
Stay with me
(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don′t want to die)
Fall with me
(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don't want to die)
Bury me

How can I be so wrong
To want my love with me?
I won′t be chained to a realm that favours
Burying your pain
I see my scarlet red streak
From the blood they've spilled
If they won′t let me tend your wounds
Oh honey, I'll burn their kingdom down


(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don't want to die)
Won′t you dance with me?
(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don′t want to die)
Won't you stay with me?
(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don′t want to die)
Won't you fall with me?
(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don′t want to die)
I won't let them bury me

(Heaven is a place where we go to die
I don′t want to die, I can't stand the thought of...)
Dance with me
(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don't want to die)
Stay with me
(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don′t want to die)
Fall with me
(Heaven is a place where we go to die; I don′t want to die)
And bury

"I have died a thousand deaths and
I will die a thousand more to come back home to you"

So you can watch me fall
From your forgiving arms
Limb and soul I tore
Watch your Heaven collapse
I am your Daughter no more
Initiate the Protocol

Heaven is a place where we go to die
I don't want to die
I can′t stand the thought of losing you or losing my mind

"The last thing I see is your face
As my mind falters and begins to break–"
