Dillinger Escape Plan › Lyrics › Baby's First Coffin

Dear God
Protect Us
Come on
Laugh this time

She stares, forever and then some never again
Polished, barbwire smile, tricks and trade
She done, so cut her again, gut her again

Dear God
Protect us
Come on
Laugh this

Silence tells us we're damned, silence tells us we're damned
Jesus we've gone and done it again
Jimmy’s got a new gun in his hand
Jesus we've gone and done it again
Jimmy’s got a new gun in his hand

You’re bein' a liar, you’re bein' a liar
You’re bein' a liar, you’re bein' a liar
How could you doubt? He would never find out
You’re bein' a liar, let’s start the show
You’re bein' a liar, I’m ready to go

You’re bein' a liar, you’re bein' a liar
You’re bein' a liar, you’re bein' a liar
How could you doubt? He would never find out
You’re bein' a liar, let’s start the show
You’re bein' a liar, I’m ready to go

The emperor is dead, the emperor is dead
Goodbye, don’t cry
Die, so long, revenge, defend
You know we brought the crowd to us

Staking time into the gust of wind to the face
Never returning, favors take the prison to the man
I could promise the world if we could travel through time
Don’t back out here
Now relax and remember the promise of the sign

I wish you could see yourself now
You look at me like a child
The way you glide across the room, it’s instrument of seduction
Let go of it, repunsel, let it down
Aim for the signal then bring it down with a smile, now

Become the conductor
The way you slide across the room, how wonderful
A connection and the last cut still bleeds as good as the first one does
It’s just the opening seed of a new flame
I look at you like a child but not at all, like you looked at me

The price is already paid, now is the time to go back
Face what you’ve done, you should never said, “Yes”
The price is already paid, now is the time to go back
Face what you’ve done

The price is already paid, the price is already paid
Now is the time to go back, face the master
You should never have said, “Yes”
When you really mean “No”
