Average Death by The Armed Lyrics

From the longest lenses far away
Reminiscent, mirror image fades
It’s never really how it happens
It’s never really how it happens

Selfish clever little runaway
Expectations, secret rattlesnakes
It’s never really how it happens
It’s never really how it happens

Oh but she...

Before each take
No light escapes
Prancing disaster
Always an actor

Fame for today
Steal every scene
Dance for your captor
Always an actor
Open letters from another day
Hollow pleasantries, Christmas tree fake
It’s never really how it happens
It’s never really how it happens

Oh but she…

Before each take
No light escapes
Prancing disaster
Always an actor

Fame for today
Steal every scene
Dance for your captor
Always an actor

Pray for sleep...

Shame for the day
She eats her dreams
Always, she has to
Always an actor

Beautiful pain
Worth the exchange
Almost in rapture
Always an actor
