Every Time I Die

Every Time I Die is a hardcore punk band from Buffalo, New York, formed in 1998. Their musical style is rooted in technical hardcore with strong southern metal and mathcore elements, and is also characterised by their cryptic, bitingly sarcastic lyrics. They have also garnered much critical and fan acclaim for their high energy, intense live shows. The band announced on July 14, 2008 that they had left Ferret Music and signed with Epitaph. Their sixth studio album, Ex Lives, was released March 6, 2012. more »

Bedeck your gown in bricks 
There's leeches stealing across the stage 
Come hell or ocean water I won't end up without 
Applaud the gall of the black cloud groping a drunken teenage vow 
As saline drips from her prom dress, damp hands are desiccated 
There's a wolf at the window of the second floor who kidnaps your date with a new car 
We both want the same thing 
Bad poetry and assaults at the bar 
Just try and stop me 
We are the only one in the world 
Prepare the ballroom 
Quicksand in front of the coat check 
Waltz with the scarecrow in the spotlight through the rye 
I was born a wanted man 
But I'll die a sailor's wife 
God help me pick the lock to her room I have to make this right 
Scream the hounds to sleep for me 
I'm creeping around in your head like a vine 
Your spit is the meat of the rose harvested by the dull 
Let fly the doves, unhook their leather wings from the fog 
Put your foot and mouth together for the sweethearts of Vietnam 
In a photo taken of us, at the recpetion held at the jail 
Loverboy is breaking up just off to the right side of me 
I will stop at nothing 
I am the siren that sings you home 
Is that clear? 
I will stop at nothing 
I am the tooth in your jewelery box 
Is that clear? 
Let pry the crows 
Unhinge their crooked beaks from the clock 
Put your foot and mouth together for the sweethearts of Vietnam 
Bolt the gate and head for ivory tower 
Adoration is cutting the phone lines to your heart 
Love is here 
I am the snarling and starry-eyed 
We both want the same thing 
Better aim at the stranger in our yard 
Just try to stop me 
I am the blinding light of your life 
Prepare the body 
I've been better but thanks for asking 
Wait with the scarecrow for the spotlight in the rye 
I'll eat you alive 
The calm will come again
