Coffin Door Lyrics

Open the casket and you'll find

Your own reflection in a broken mirror

Bet you never thought you'd find yourself here

Frantic as the end gets nearer

Don't pack a suitcase, there's no time

Cuz anything you love you can't take with you

You can try to run but there's no point

You can't outrun what rots inside you

It's coming

No one knows where you'll go

It's coming

But you can't stay here

It's coming

Focus

How many times have you rehearsed your final words

Because you have just one

Single chance to get this right

Our big mistake is that we think we have time

When the final grain falls into place

Don't hesitate, because tomorrow's a lie

When the final grain falls into place

Decisions must be made

And on the last day of your life

We'll talk about you like you're not in the room

We'll say you're going to a better place soon

Avoiding the cold hard truth

We'll give you flowers that you earned

We'll dig a hole that you can fit inside

We'll drop your carcass in a bed of dirt

Extinguishing the dimming light

It's coming

No one knows where you'll go

It's coming

But you can stay here

It's coming

Listen

What happens here and now can never be redone

Because you have just one

Single chance to get this right

Our big mistake is that we think we have time

When the final grain falls into place

Don't hesitate, because tomorrow's a lie

When the final grain falls into place

When will it be too late

How can you think when

In the back of your mind

There's a ticking sound

Growing louder

Each god damn day

And if you listen closer

You might make out

The distant words

Desperate reminders

A sense of urgency to

Love now

A voice that's telling you to

Burn bright

A wish that in the end you'll

Sleep sound

Self-immolating in the blaze

Among the ashes of

All your creations

They're closing the coffin door

The wood beneath your nails

Closing the coffin door

You really fought like hell

Closing the coffin door

With no more air to breathe

Closing the coffin door

No one can hear you plead

For one more day
