Death By A Thousand Cuts Lyrics - District 97

This snuck right up on me 

If I only knew, I'd have seen right through 

Each time I look away 

The hideousness grows, until it takes control 

Don't even try to tear yourself away 

It happens over time 

With each passing day, our patience slips away 

So, gradually we fall 

United just enough, to stand each other down 

I just can't take anymore, you can't take anymore 

But it doesn't matter at all, it doesn't matter 

I remember when this felt just like heaven 

Now we're in the abyss 

Tearing back these walls to find nothing at all 

There's just one crack that grows and grows 

Death by a thousand cuts (whispered) 

With backs against the wall 

That crumbles every time we try to make a move 

We can't get very far 

Captives at the sight of the ruins all around 

Don't even try to last one more day 

Light and get away 

Or would you rather stay, laying in wait? 

Just like Dorian Gray 

It's gonna show on our face, the things we've done 

Nothing more to say, it's just a game that we play 

How many cuts can you survive? 

Death by a thousand cuts (whispered)
