[Intro]

Once, there was a healthy man

He spent his lifetime workshoppin' robots

No intentions ill or foul (I know you've heard the tune before)

No intentions ill or foul


[Verse 1]

In my line of darkness, your poison's kind of useless

Old Mr. Corpse is rotting in the room with us

I've been tortured, crawled out of purgatory

Tell me, honestly, is there something wrong with me?

Up the ante, I'm tired of this new status quo

All the agony stores enough power to know

I have done some terrible things in my life

I have done unbearable things


[Pre-Chorus]

But I don't want to die

(I don't wanna die, don't wanna)

Please don't let me die


[Chorus]

It's coming from below, they want me

But I know a thing or two when it comes to being killed

It may seem a bit painful

But at least you get to come back again, and again, and again


[Post-Chorus]

May I have your condolences?

I know you've heard the tune before

(Know you've heard the tune before)

You think it's all outrageous

Nevertheless, it's like I never left


[Verse 2]

Now, what's all the ruckus?

Noises so abundant

You'd think that I'd get used to this

Let my insides evanesce

Human contact remains very seldom

All the children will channel all their powers to

S-A-V-E T-H-E-M

Thirty years with torture you can't comprehend

Forty years, they're seeking for means to an end

Fifty years attached onto puppeteer strings

Who would do such terrible things?


[Pre-Chorus]

I just want to die, yeah

So please just let me die


[Chorus]

I'm undefeatable, I'm thriving

'Cause I know a thing or two when it comes to being killed

It's oh, so very painful

And I don't want it to happen again, and again, and again

It's coming for us all, I'm hiding

I'm 'bout to take a blow, and I'm smiling

It's oh, so very painful

And I don't want it to happen again, and again, and again


[Post-Chorus]

Oh, la-da-do, ah

Oh, la-da-dee, ah

Oh, la-da-do, ah

(Somebody help me, somebody help me)


[Bridge]

(Oh, woah-oh)

I know you've heard the tune before

Once there was a healthy man

He spent his lifetime workshoppin' robots

No intentions ill or foul

And nothing in the lines of killing kids and trapping ghouls

(Why'd you think that?)

But then a fated moment, he caught one of his own

Couldn't face the world

He made a promise, and he'd harness all the anger

Enough to bring his loved ones back

He's gone haywire


[Chorus]

Now it's coming from below, the hellfire

I'm about to make a friend but he doesn't seem that friendly

Well, that goes without saying, there's no use in praying

Again, and again, and again


[Outro]

The research in my head, it's dying

Couldn't leave it all behind and now

No one's gonna find it, find it

To me, it's all fine art, if I could take it back, well, I'd not

I guess it's all up to fate for man to reanimate
