The Reaper Lyrics

[Intro: Amy Shark]
Ooh
Ooh

[Pre-Chorus: Drew Taggart]
Pretty face with two sides
So what's it gonna be tonight?
Dark taste, I'm terrified
I know that something isn't right
You take what you want
Then you leave when you're done
Pretty face with two sides
So what's it gonna be tonight?

[Chorus: Amy Shark]
I'm in my house in the hills with The Reaper
And I wonder if he knows what I've done
I got the keys and I'm going off the deep end
Doesn't hurt when you're doin' it for fun
Am I in your way-ay-ay? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Am I in your way-ay-ay? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

[Post-Chorus: Amy Shark]
Am I in your—
Ah

[Verse: Drew Taggart]
I pull the trigger just to show her that I need her
But she don't really trust anyone
Yeah, everybody's always lookin' for a feature
No one's steppin' up to be the one
Am I in your way-ay-ay? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Am I in your way-ay-ay? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

[Bridge: Amy Shark]
Am I in your way-ay-ay? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Am I in your way-ay-ay? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

[Pre-Chorus: Drew Taggart & Amy Shark]
Pretty face with two sides
So what's it gonna be tonight?
Dark taste, I'm terrified
I know that something isn't right
You take what you want
Then you leave when you're done
Pretty face with two sides
So what's it gonna be tonight?

[Chorus: Amy Shark with Drew Taggart]
I'm in my house in the hills with The Reaper
And I wonder if he knows what I've done
I got the keys and I'm going off the deep end
Doesn't hurt when you're doin' it for fun
Am I in your way-ay-ay? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Am I in your way-ay-ay? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

[Post-Chorus: Amy Shark]
Am I in your way-ay-ay? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Am I in your way-ay-ay? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ooh

About

“The Reaper” is the lead song of World War Joy, the third album released by The Chainsmokers. The song features Australian singer Amy Shark providing vocals in an ominous-sounding track. Drew sings about a person with two sides, one being pretty and one being terrifying. He’s conflicted about her, wonder if he’ll get her bad side, but also trying to prove himself to her by “pulling the trigger.”

The Chainsmokers and Amy Shark had been reported to have been working together in August 2017, with this track appearing to be the result.

The lyric video for this song is composed of different fonts and styles from well-known films, most of them terror films.
