Death by a Thousand Cuts Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's no escape from the thoughts inside my head
Dark days has taken the best of me
I can't go on like this
This life has cut me by my knees
There's no cure to the disease
I've come to live with the pain

[Pre-Chorus]
Can you turn back time
To change what you have done?
To shape who you become?
Drowning in my mind
I keep waiting for death to take me
I keep hoping for you to save me

[Chorus]
Death by a thousand cuts
The writing's on the wall
The rise before the fall
Death by a thousand cuts
Do you bleed for something
Or will you die for nothing?
(Nothing)

[Verse 2]
Can you hear the echoes of my heart?
The distant beating in the dark
I can't make sense of this
I know the walls are closing in
I feel it deep within my skin
What's the point of living life?
[Pre-Chorus]
On the edge of a knife
Past the warning signs
Running out of time
Drowning in my mind
I keep waiting for death to take me
I keep hoping for you to save me

[Chorus]
Death by a thousand cuts
The writing's on the wall
The rise before the fall
Death by a thousand cuts
Do you bleed for something
Or will you die for nothing?
(Nothing)

[Breakdown]
One by one by one
Death by a thousand cuts
One by one by one
Death by a thousand cuts

[Bridge]
One by one by one
Do you bleed for something
One by one by one
Or will you die for nothing?
One by one by one
Do you bleed for something?
One by one by one
[Chorus]
Death by a thousand cuts
The writing's on the wall
The rise before the fall
Death by a thousand cuts
Do you bleed for something
Or will you die for nothing?
(Nothing)

[Coda]
I keep waiting for death to take me
I keep hoping for you to save me
Do you bleed for something
Or will you die for nothing?
I keep waiting for death to take me
I keep hoping for you to save me
Do you bleed for something
Or will you die for nothing?
(One by one by one)
(One by one by one)
Or will you die for nothing?
I keep waiting for death to take me
I keep hoping for you to save me
Do you bleed for something
Or will you die for nothing?
[Instrumental Outro]
