Morbid Curiosity Lyrics - Singles - Detritus

(Broomhead, Neal) 

What's death for you my friend? 

The beginning or the end? 

I see your nervousness, you're scared 

Why's it wrong, I ask you now? 

You tell me what you'll allow? 

The fear that holds you weighs you down 

Perfection, you strive to get 

The only time you'll get there is when you'd dead 

Listen and you will see 

Death's the only time you're truly free 

The only certain thing in life is death 

And the fact that everyone will taste its breath 

The day that you will die draws ever near 

Can you face it, without fear? 

You'd like to tell me what to say 

You'd like to hold my tongue 

Keep those thoughts inside your head 

But I'll talk until I'm done 

Why can't you face reality, you might 

Not see tomorrow 

You know for me death's lost its sting 

But will it cause you sorrow? 

This is no morbid curiosity 

My conversation makes you cringe 

You turn and spit it out 

Why do you always make a scene? 

Why do you scream and shout? 

Why can't you face reality 

Society ignores? 

Unconstructive criticism 

Shutting open doors 

This is no morbid curiosity 

Why don't you listen? 

Why are you scared? 

Look at what you're missing! 

Because you're not prepared, to& 

Put all your life behind you 

Stare at death in the face 

Ignore societies excuses 

Put them back in their place
