DNFMOMD: Questions Are a Burden to Others – the lyrics

Episode 12 – Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling

put your pen, to the paper
save your heart for someplace later
the ink twists and bends
don’t you sign away your name again

your mind is up and it’s walking around
only ever felt free when it was bound
give your body to me, I won’t let you down
I won’t let you down

do not forsake me
oh my darling
oh my darling

put my pen, to the paper
it was just too late to save her
the ink twists and bends
don’t you give me up again

your body is up and it’s moving around
only ever felt free when it was under the crown
give your mind to me, I won’t let you down
I won’t let you down

do not forsake me
oh my darling
oh my darling
do not forsake me
oh my darling
oh my darling

Episode 11 – It’s Your Funeral

the clock keeps marching on – it goes tick tick tick, tick-tock
my heart keeps beating on – it goes tick tick tick, tick-stop

I know your face, I know your name
better than my own
it’s still the same we still play the game
better than being alone

the clock keeps marching on – it goes tick tick tick, tick-tock
my heart keeps beating on – it goes tick tick tick, tick-stop

I can help you, there’s a place
far from here
yes I know the way down, there is a way out make you
disappear

just when you think you can’t take
any more
they tell you that it’s done, they tell you that they
ended the war

the clock keeps marching on – it goes tick tick tick, tick-tock
my heart keeps beating on – it goes tick tick tick, tick-stop
the clock keeps marching on – it goes tick tick tick, tick-tock
my heart keeps beating on – it goes tick tick tick, tick-stop
tick tick tick, tick-tok
tick tick tick, tick-stop

In the white light
death heat
yeah living like this
don’t do it for me
yeah living like this
so hard to breathe
do it for me, prove it to me

I see you at night
swear I’m not dreaming
you’re a ball of light
I wake up screaming, I wake up screaming

I keep running for you
it’s not enough
I keep fighting for truth
it’s not enough
I keep feeling I do
it’s not enough
to earn your love, earn your love

I see you at night

I wake up screaming, I wake screaming

white light, death heat
black shadows yeah, they’re coming for me
white light, death heat

Episode 6 – Many Happy Returns

I lost my heart in a desert of the blackest ocean
gave up sight to unearthly visions
of death’s chariot pulling up to my gate
telling me that I’ve got a debt to pay

now, who’s afraid of the dark
when you keep awake, every day is marked
who’s afraid of the dark

I kept running, kept hoping for a change
kept moving the pieces kept shifting the blame
he said my time now runs short let’s play
just keep breathing baby one more day

who’s afraid of the dark
when you keep going, ’cause you’re afraid to stop
who’s afraid of the dark
every dawn you walk right back through that same door
you reach up and cry out
NO more more more more more more more more

now who’s afraid of the dark
when you keep awake, every day is marked
who’s afraid of the dark
when you keep awake ’cause everyday is marked
who’s afraid of the dark
who’s afraid?

Episode 5 – Free For All

I intend to set and be set free
so don’t hold your raw dreams up to me
come inside I’ll come to your side if it makes you weak
I will do as I need to do to make you see

I know you can feel it coming down
I know you can feel it coming down
I know you can feel it coming down
Coming down, come on down

you got your friends who you thought your friends are not your friends
it don’t make sense, yeah it don’t make sense for this to be your end
come inside I’ll come to your side if it makes you believe
I will do as I need to do to set you free

I know you can feel it coming down
I know you can feel it coming down
I know you can feel it coming down
Coming down, come on down
