Hope is gone It has slipped away From fingers now gone numb Squeezing without ease The engine of flesh Now ceases to beat I'm holding on For what seemed like years The memories too strong Death, he bends my ear "Live" he says, "I'm coming Do not fear" Life is slowly fading black I've found my way I'm coming back Life is slowly fading black I've found my way I'm coming back To life We all begin to die As soon as we're born And the end is bleak. Now I commence my Last voyage into darkness I take the leap. And may there be no Wailing at the wall When I'm out to sea. For each sad Moment of decay We rise There's much death in this life!
