Elias and the Error - Stay Dead

〈Verse 1〉

I get some sleep
But that was 〈.?.〉
〈.?.〉
With them all over me

I get some sleep
But that was just a dream
This is why
I stay dead!

No where to go, I'm looking for my home
No one to trust, I'm dying through my lungs
All thats around, has burned into the ground
This is why
I stay dead!

Stay stay stay!
Dead dead dead!

〈Chorus〉

I stay dead, everything is worthless
Stay dead cuz I want to be perfect
Stay dead so nothing ever hurts me
Stay dead with the ghouls and zombies
When I come back to life
We'll have a gay old time!

Stay dead cuz evеrything is worthless
Stay dead cuz I want to be pеrfect

Death dead! x4

One sharp slice from a sharp, sharp knife
Sharp sharp claws and the animal jaws
?? From the pain inside

I stay dead so I can stay alive

〈Intermission Verse〉

{?}

But, we don't have to talk about that right now

〈Instrumental〉

Stay dead so I can stay alive x4

〈Chorus〉
I stay dead, everything is worthless
Stay dead cuz I want to be perfect
Stay dead so nothing ever hurts me
Stay dead with the ghouls and zombies

When I come back to life
We'll have a gay old time!

Stay dead cuz everything is worthless
Stay dead cuz I want to be perfect

(I want to be perfect)

Stay dead! x9
