Lyrics Death Is NY - Silence

Life is compromise
Even in death -
the rule applies
Her tricky bliss,
unfeeling kiss;
Death is New York

That's why we say 'that's life'
when someone dies
and dream of hells
like paradise
To have it all
and not recall;
Death is New York

Smiles like alibis
We fight the dark
armed with white lies
and face the facts
with our backs;
Death is New York

Faith is the ability
to grasp at straws
To think of death
as Santa Claus
We stand in awe
despite her flaws;
Death is New York
