Song of Death

The open door, it’s calling to me.
Sing a song so I can dance along.
The open wall, window through which I can look.
See myself, stare in disgust.
All is fate, a locked gate I cannot enter.
Kick it all, end the pain.

CHORUS
Fatalistic notes,
Lifeless tunes.
Wicked choirs of Death’s minions
Angels and demons, together we join them.
As the church bells chime of Life’s deadly song.
END CHORUS

When one fails… the others will follow.
Like sheep to the slaughterhouse we tell our tales.
Bloody enchantments, deathly incantations.
Things have died, none born again.
The person within me and everyone else is gone.
As our bodies fade, our souls move on.
If one could purchase his inner being,
A clean soul before death’s toll,
All is worth nothing, a world which values nothing.
And hurt is all a dream, the pain will end, and we will part.
Chime in, sing the tune.
Chime in Life’s deathly song, it’s a passage of time,
That goes forever on.

CHORUS

And hurt is all a dream, the pain will end, and we will part.
Chime in and sing our tune.
Chime in Life’s death song, it’s a passage of time,
That goes forever on.
