The future seems no more
The end is near, I'm growing sore
When the body goes limp buried in the floor, I feel for my soul walking out life's door
If only faith was real, there'd be nothing to conceal
This ideal I feel, just has no appeal
Like sand in water, do I disappear
Leaving behind all my loved ones, all those I hold near
Will I leave an impact? An ocean of tears?
Or just this statue of flesh left to rot for a million years
I am hiding behind this pillar of skin
Looking out but ignoring the in
In constant fear that the lights stay dimmed, until it's dark and you discover my grim
Bleeding life seems to sink in the Earth (to sink in the Earth)
Gives feet to the deep, there is no rebirth (there is no rebirth)
If they discover my pain what would it be worth? (what would it be worth?)
So I wish to remain alone, rotting in dirt (rotting in dirt)
These thoughts keep seething
They're boiling in my mind
Afraid there's nothing left but organs inside
I should've done more than feed my pride and sit in this dark shell and hide
BLECK!
I am hiding behind this pillar of skin
Looking out but ignoring the in
In constant fear that the lights stay dimmed, until it's dark and you discover my grim
Bleeding life seems to sink in the Earth (to sink in the Earth)
Gives feet to the deep, there is no rebirth (there is no rebirth)
If they discover my pain what would it be worth? (what would it be worth?)
So I wish to remain alone, rotting in dirt (rotting in dirt)
If you lower me down in the ground, let this soul be unfound
Someone pull the strands of time
Let the forces be unwound
Life is short, I know, but a real long ways to go
Hypnotized when we die
Disastrous, darkened, dimented glow
I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm afraid
This cycle, I feel, is the reason why we're made
