[English]

I'm not coming for you

I've already arrived

When I let it all out

It will eat you alive

I'm the only enemy you'll ever need

My eyes may cry, but I'll never weep

I'm the only enemy you'll ever need

My eyes may cry, but I'll never weep

Eyes may cry, but I'll never weep

Eyes may cry, but I'll never weep

Eyes may cry, but I'll never weep

Eyes may cry, but I'll never weep

Stand in a circle, take out your sword

Now stab to your right

Go around in a daisy chain

Until you're all unalive

Stand in a circle, take out your sword

Now stab to your right

Go around in a daisy chain

Until you're all unalive

Eyes may cry, but I'll never weep

Eyes may cry, but I'll never weep

Eyes may cry, but I'll never weep

Eyes may cry, but I'll never weep

Hold hands around your fire

Burn you like a church

Get higher than God

You won't rise again

And we'll rejoice

We'll rejoice

We'll rejoice

We'll rejoice

I want your death, your whole death

And nothing but your death

I want your death, your whole death

And nothing but your death

I want your death, your whole death

And nothing but your death

I want your death, your whole death

And nothing but your death

I'm the only enemy you'll ever need

I'm the only enemy you'll ever need

I'm the only enemy you'll ever need

I'm the only enemy you'll ever need

...

Go back in time

Execution day

Stop who you will be in the future

Go back in time

Execution day

Stop who you will be in the future
