Matt Skiba and the Sekrets - The End of Joy Lyrics

This sinking feeling in this heart of mineKeeps me captive at the helmSo it's seemingly a matter of timeAs I slowly drift straight down to hellLike a stone dropped in a wellIt's loudly pounding within this head of mineJust like a hammer to a bellAnd as it's sounding the alarms to get in lineIn time we have our own sick tale to tellFrom where our demons used to dwellThe end of joy, the death of truthCame to destroy everything we knewLost in the void, forgotten youthFan the flames of the burning heart inside of youThis crimson dripping off these hands of mineFrom all the time that I have killedWishing everything will turn out just fine'til I clean up all the blood I’ve spilledThough you wait there soft and stillYou know damn well I never willThe end of joy, the death of truthCame to destroy everything we knewLost in the void, forgotten youthFan the flames of the burning heart inside of youAnd while you live your days on the straight and narrowYou wish to clip the wings of the soaring sparrowAnd as your angels sing our hearts remain as feralFelines on the front lines marching towards impending perilThe end of joy, the death of truthCame to destroy everything we knewLost in the void, forgotten youthFan the flames of the burning heart inside of youThe burning heart inside of youOf the burning heart inside of you
