[森カリオペ「Death Sentence」歌詞]
[Intro]
SINDERELLA sings
I watch in silence
Soulless foreign city
Where none can find us
[Verse 1]
What is this numbness doing to me?
Aren't I set? Am I not free?
Inner thoughts never not screwing with sleep
Never impressed
Always off-key
I don’t want anything
Haven't you seen?
眠れない 夢欲しい
Used to like what I write
Now I can't breathe
Got to hit charts, need a big reach
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t say what I'm after
Do you have to know?
Mind and heart, both dead
It's what I get, invite disaster
Can't say what I'm after
Do you have to know?
Sight and soul, both dead
It's what I get
Don't ask me what I've got
[Chorus]
Imagine it, passionate, full of desire
You got the means
You bring the fire
Imminent, intricate, call it your art
Somebody’s there
To pull it apart
Choking, croding your soul over time
Holding you back
Sending you flying
All of a sudden it’s out of your hands
No one relates or understands
[Bridge]
Just five-letter word
G-u-i-l-t
Consumers your life
So what are you gonna do?
[Chorus]
Can't say what I’m after
Do you have to know?
Mind and heart, both dead
It's what I get, invite disaster
Can't say what I'm after
Do you have to know?
Sight and soul, both dead
It’s what I get
Don't ask me what I've got
[Outro]
Ask me what I've got
It's what I get
Don't ask me what I've got
