I Am The Antichrist To You (Live) Lyrics
Kishi Bashi
Lyrics
Who are you? Who am I to you?
I am the antichrist to you
fallen from the sky with grace
into your arms race
Lucid lovers me and you
a deal of matchless value
I was always quick to admit defeat
empty statements of bones and meat
And my heart it swith fear
I'm a coward behind a shield and spear
Take this sword and throw it far
Let it shine under the morning star
Who are you? Who am I to you?
I am the antichrist to you
fallen from the sky with grace
into your arms race
One for my heart and two for show
three tears for all the souls below
One day we made them into figurines
burned them all with all my favorite things
Who are you? Who am I to you?
I am the antichrist to you
fallen from the sky with grace
into your arms race
Who are you? Who am I to you?
I am the antichrist to you
fallen from the sky with grace
into your arms...
