The Slow Decay

歌詞

Where do we go now? I'm still trying to find the words A quarter lifetime on As if a pen and paper could restore The greatest loss I've known Every outline of you lingers in the door Every cigarette, a silhouette in ash drawn upon the floor Remember how they told me, "You're too young to understand You will shift just like the weather as you grow into a man" This I know My life has flashed before my eyes And the days all seemed to pass me by All the pain I earned and the love I lost Was the only truth, this all will someday soon return to dust Return to dust And if we all go to hell, I'll find some peace where I dwell I never thought there was more to this than met the eye When I have no more to give, surrender my right to live We're only killing time till time kills us and we Decay together We're not built to live forever Content to shed my blissful ignorance No fire, no light, an insignificant mistake And if we all go to hell, I'll find some peace where I dwell I never thought there was more to this than met the eye When I have no more to give, surrender my right to live We're only killing time till time kills us My life has flashed before my eyes And the days all seemed to pass me by All the pain I earned and the love I lost Was the only truth, this all will someday soon return to dust
