Don’t Cling to Life Lyrics by The Murder Capital

When I Have Fears

2019

[Verse 1]
With all your chances gone awry
To be collected by your palms
If I had only stood aside
With dower sediment in hand
Forego delusion to disarm
Then dance around your lonely cave
In my relentless state of charm
Let's stay close for all our days
[Verse 2]
And as it banes deadly grip
The world collapses 'round my room
The water floats, the floor's adrift
Your eyes demand the darkest gloom
With hands held tight, it goes and goes
The light that once shot off the pale
A steady hand's return to stone
Let's stay close for all our days
[Pre-Chorus]
Failing this, let's dance and cry
Failing this, let's dance and cry
So we remember why we die
We remember why we die, yeah
Failing this, let's dance and cry
Failing this, let's dance and cry
So we remember why we die
We remember why we die
[Chorus]
Don't cling to life, don't cling to life
Don't cling to life, don't cling to life
There's nothing on the other side
There's nothing on the other side
Don't cling to life, don't cling to life
Don't cling to life, don't cling to life
There's nothing on the other side
There's nothing on the other side
