[Lyrics for Anathema – Better Off Dead]
I’m sorry about the sun,
how could I know that you would burn?,
and I’m sorry about the moon,
how could I know that you’d disapproved,
I’ll never make the same mistake,
I’ll make sure we communicate at length
oh yeah,
but until then…it’s better off dead,
a smile on the lips and a hole in the head,
better off dead, it’s better than this,
take it away ’cause there’s nothing to miss
I’m sorry about the world,
how could I know you’d take it so bad?,
and I’ll never make the same mistake,
so if you are looking for a fantasy
why not trying the entire human rase
just to play it safe
until then…
a smile on the lips and a hole in the head,
better off dead, it’s better than this,
take it away ’cause there’s nothing to miss
Better off dead, better off dead,
why don’t you try pushing daisies instead
Better off dead, better off dead,
a smile on the lips and a hole in the head,
and I’ll never make the same mistake,
I’ll make sure you participate
oh yeah
and I’ll never make the same mistake,
I’ll make sure we communicate at length, just in case.
