When Death Came Calling

from Never Got Gone EP by Jameson McGregor

/

lyrics

barely breathing
barely even hanging on
a dim light fading
you were crumbling from the weight
of a broken body
a hollow frame
when death came calling
you broke clean out of your skin
like you were running home

i still feel you
creaking floorboards, rushing winds
a picture fading
but i keep grabbing for the shape
of a broken body
a hollow frame
when death came calling
he broke clean out of the grave
like a falling chain

but it still stings
it still stings
when everything you love is fading
we all fade
we'll all fade

but there in darkness
we'll be caught up
in blinding light
the final curtain
cut short for the rewrite
when all the broken bodies
are coming up from open graves
and death comes calling
there'll be nothing left to give
or take away

nothing left to give or take away
we won't fade, we won't fade

every tear we shed in graveyards
will sprout and bloom
and grow a garden
where we won't fade
and you won't fade
