27 Club Songtext

They told me I would find you there
What if I say that mutually exclusive ain't a thing?
Now God and Darwin are ashamed
Well, I'd like reconsider you can't reconsider let me reconsider
So what you're saying is- for me, you're saying that
the stairway to heaven is more like a slope?
And I will slip to a fiery death if I don't believe in Satan?
They said there's no such thing as an atheist in a foxhole
I'm trying to be a god damned believer bu the road to heaven's full of potholes
They said he talks like christian but walks like an atheist
I'm gonna raise hell until it's high enough to be heaven
Then maybe you can find me (there) maybe I can find you hoping I can find you
They told me if I look up they told me I would find you there
If I look up to find you then how can I deny you?
There were no martyrs until he gave himself away
Giving your life is the only way to make them see
and once you're gone, they'll realize death is the only way
To die for your cause is the most effective way to propagate
Make me a martyr make sure the books they read my name
A gun to my head, a hair trigger with the worst of aim Flirting with death, but I'm married to my selfish ways
See, I'd die for something, but then I wouldn't get to see the fame
To be a martyr you mustn't die a death in vain
I'd kill myself, but suicide is so cliche
Heavenly father, does heaven have a place for me
or will I get there only to learn St. Peter has misplaced the key?
Right down the middle polarity right down the middle
That's where we'll meet them all after you kill one
There's bound to be more
With thousands fucking thousands that makes about a million more
Us v. them an ARMY us v. them us. us.
