Fit For A King - Dead Memory
Album: Deathgrip

***********************************************

Yeah!

[Verse 1]:

Fifteen years since you walked away
No goodbyes, no apologies
What's a kid supposed to do
When He dies inside
What's a heart supposed to do
When you've bled it dry

[Pre-Chorus]:

I won't let you in
This is the last time I put my trust in anyone
This is the last time I sit back for you
This is the last time I put my trust in you

[Chorus]:

Would you even notice if my world was falling apart?
Would you even care if my heart stopped beating, my heart stopped beating?

[Verse 2 - Jake Luhrs]:

I chose to make amends to let you back in
But you did what you did once again
I chose love in a moment of death
And this is how you repay me?
Ripping trust away

[Bridge 1]:

I will let you rot, waste away
Return to the ground for heaven's sake
And now you will know my misery

[Bridge 2]:

Your tongue tells lies
Your eyes deceive
Your touch, poisonous
You're nothing to me

[Chorus]:

Would you even notice if my world was falling apart?
Would you even care if my heart stopped beating, my heart stopped beating?
Would you even notice? (Would you even notice?)
Would you even care (Would you even care?)
Would you even notice if my heart stopped beating, my heart stopped?

Would you even notice if my world was falling apart?
Would you even care if my heart stopped beating, my heart stopped beating?

About this song:

(quote) Another experience, shared in the song "Dead Memory," deals with a family member. "My wife’s father abandoned her," Kirby explains, "so I wrote about death from her perspective—the death of her spirit. She felt abandoned and empty inside."

Lyrics like "Your touch, poisonous / You’re nothing to me / Would you even notice if my world was falling apart? / Would you even care if my heart stopped beating?" engulfs the listener in the poisonous effects of silent desertion.

"People can lose their minds over the depression of loss," notes Kirby. "It has such a grip over our lives; it truly affects how people go about living. Processing through our grief in this record was really therapeutic, and we hope it is for our fans too." (unquote)
