Mae Krell - Body bag

Copied!

Playing god again
I know i promised that i wouldn't
Try to control it all again
I know deep down i can't
Signed myself up for the guillotine
In hope that it'll clear my head...
Clear my head

Maybe if the blame was on someone else
It wouldn't hurt as bad...
As bad
I swear that i won't put myself in a body bag
Not anymore...
Not anymore

Raided the (?...)'s closet again
So i could wear sheep's clothing
I know no one would notice then
When i walk the green mile
And i can't tell myself apart
From who i was at 21
I know it's what i wanted but
What i wanted isn't good for me

Maybe if the blame was on someone else
It wouldn't hurt as bad...
As bad
I swear that i won't put myself in a body bag
Not anymore...
Not anymore
I swear that i won't put myself in a body bag
Not anymore...
Not anymore
