Elvis Lyrics by Phantom Party

Hundred Skeletons

2017

I long for the American Dream
Even though we can’t define it
I wanna cast my body into the sea
With hopes I’ll divide it

All my heroes are dead
I’m hell bent and I’m Heaven sent
I’ll end up like them
Godspeed Starman, here’s to the end

Well I’m down to my last cigarette
Why couldn’t God make me look like Elvis?
And I’m barely breathing through this sleep machine
And the blood I’m spilling
Makes a portrait of who I used to be

Lay me down and cut me open
And tell me what you see
A heart of glass that’s always broken
And lungs made of nicotine

My shadow’s my only friend
​I’m barely conscious, face down on the bed
Haunted by what God said
There’s not a prayer I can comprehend

Well I’m down to my last cigarette
Why couldn’t God make me look like Elvis?
And I’m barely breathing through this sleep machine
And the blood I’m spilling
Makes a portrait of who I used to be
