Paroles de The Coroner's Gambit

when death came calling today,

i heard the gentle grace of his cadences.

i couldn't say no.
i couldn't say no.



when he showed me his new silk scarves

laid out on a shiny black plastic tray,

couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say no.

i couldn't say no.



and i'm sorry i couldn't.

do you know how badly i wanted to?

didn't want, didn't want, didn't want, didn't want, didn't want to lose you,
couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say no.

i couldn't say no.
