Neck Breaker Lyrics

You're wanted dead or alive

Up to you which one they decide

So ride, but you gotta land, sometime

And when you do, oh, you fool

The gallows will be waiting for you

You're gonna hang from the head

Until you're dead, dead, dead

Make your bed with the fishes

Last chance for final wishes

Don't break your neck trying to run from the gallows

You're bringing the end of the world on yourself

'Cause if it's Heaven you're after, why not have it right now?

New Creation's been growing for two millennia

Hunt you down till Kingdom come

Hang you at the Resurrection

Ship off at Joppa, with your sins upon your head

Like bait dangling over jaws, but you're Jonah and will be jettisoned

Don't break your neck, trying to run from the gallows

I promise there's more than one way to go out

But if the story you pick, ends with you getting strangled

Your noose could be tentacles into a mouth

Run from the noose on land, but a worse one will find you in the sea

You're either saved or damned, if it's what you believe

Don't break your neck trying to run from the gallows

You're saving their souls but sending Earth to Hell

So don't waste your breath, cheering me up with good news

I swear it just sounds like you're singing the blues

Don't sever my head, if it's lost in the clouds

I promise I'll come back down on my own

'Cause I've been asking the angels if our time's running out

They say our whole kingdom's upside down
