DOA - Demo Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh, you know I did it
It's over and I feel fine
Nothing you could say is gonna change my mind
Waited and I waited the longest night
Nothing like the taste of sweet decline

[Verse 1]
I was down, and I fell, I fell so fast
Dropping like the grains in an hourglass
Never say forever cause nothing lasts
Dancing with the bones of my buried past

[Pre-Chorus]
Never mind there's nothing I could do
Bet your life there's something killing you

[Chorus]
It's a shame we have to die my dear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
What a way to go, but have no fear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time

[Verse 2]
I'm finished, I'm getting you off my chest
Made you come clean in a dirty dress
A promise is a promise you kept in check
Hard to cross a heart that beats this fast
[Interlude]
Take a good hard look for the very last time
The very last one in a very long line
Only took a second to say goodbye
Been a pleasure, but the pleasure's been mine all mine

[Pre-Chorus]
Never mind there's nothing I could do
Bet your life there's something killing you

[Chorus]
It's a shame we have to die my dear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
What a way to go, but have no fear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time

Ain't no way, DOA
Ain't no way, DOA

[Interlude]
Take a good hard look for the very last time
The very last one in a very long line
Only took a second to say goodbye
Been a pleasure, but the pleasure's been mine all mine
[Pre-Chorus]
Never mind there's nothing I could do
Bet your life there's something killing you

[Chorus]
It's a shame we have to die my dear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
What a way to go, but have no fear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time

[Outro]
It's a shame we have to disappear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
This time
This time

  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
