The Light Despondent Lyrics - Dope Fiend Massacre Ep - Biting Elbows

He took his final breath 

I hear it to this day 

There's no redemption 

And the punishment is delayed 

The only reaction that I face 

Is hidden well behind my face 

A trace surely can 

Lead the law right to their man 

Well, hurry up 

I did not betray no shock 

I heard the door behind me lock 

And I was now held hostage to 

A hostile scene and I wasn't sure what to do 

But I knew I had to get away 

The light despondent falls upon it's prey 

I put a foreign object in his neck 

And I thought that by now I would be a suspect 

I fear this and it feeds on me 

My self-defense catastrophe 

It sees my kids grow 

It tells me they will have to one day know... 

I used to blame the girl 

That led me there 

Until I made her my wife 

And the house that we have built 

Is white with crimson insides 

My God, my mouth is dry 

Suicidal, I ain't suicidal 

I won't drink my way to no asylum 

And it can't be ignored 

Like the bobble-head on my dashboard 

Quietly nodding at me 

Quietly nodding at me
