Deathblow Lyrics
Deftones
Lyrics
Soon as you came in all the beast went away
They noticed that you're warm
Wait till you leave then come back for more
The ropes hang to keep us all awake
And I should have known
As soon as you came in the agony it went away
I noticed what you wore to everything we spoke and more
And the ropes hang to keep us all awake
And I should have known
It only takes one break of your pose to get off
To save our place home with you still the same song
As soon as you came in
Is when I believe we both crashed course
And the ropes hang to keep us all awake
And I should have known
It only takes one break of a pose to get off
And to save our place home with you all
That's all it takes?
Well I should have known, it's still the same song
