Memento Mori

by Lux Lisbon

on Get Some Scars (2016)

One, two, three, four

Do not adjust your set
Because the revolution hasn't happened yet
No, you know we'll never have this night again
So come on tell me, "if not now then when?"
Well, you find just what you love
You let it slowly kill you, let it buzz your blood
You let it ride your back, the burden wear you down
Let it drain your all and your remains devour
Cos these bones lying here so bare
Yeah, they're just waiting on you for your final breath

Oh, come hear me roar, "Memento mori"
I hear those two words and my body comes alive
You say it's cruel, hell you're wrong it's beautiful
To know one day you're gonna die, oh
To know one day you're gonna die

So c-c-c'mon, scream atop your lungs, oh
"Memento mori," all my careless sons
Who say, "forever is a lie, dark as they come"
So give me the night and lay down your guns
You're gonna find just what you love
You let it slowly kill you, let it buzz your blood
You let it ride your back, the burden wear you down
Let it drain your all and your remains devour
Cos these bones lying here so bare
Yeah, they're just waiting on you for your final breath

Oh, come hear me roar, "Memento mori"
I hear those two words and my body comes alive
You say it's cruel, hell you're wrong it's beautiful
To know one day you're gonna die, oh
To know one day you're gonna die

Come hear me roar, oh, "Memento mori"
I hear those two words and my body comes alive
You say it's cruel, I say it's beautiful
To know one day that you're gonna die
So come hear me roar, oh, "Memento mori"
I hear those two words and my body comes alive
Come hear me roar, oh, "Memento mori"
I hear those two words and my body comes alive
And my body comes alive
And my body comes alive
And my body comes alive

Oh, come hear me roar, "Memento mori"
I hear those two words and my body comes alive
You say it's cruel, hell you're wrong it's beautiful
To know one day that you're gonna die, oh
To know one day that you're gonna die
