Watching the clock counting down ‘til it’s doomsday
Drown in the mess if the stress doesn’t kill me
Giving up in the grasp of the routine
Lying awake in a cemetery city
No better days to believe in
Only the cracks of a structure that’s flailing
No mind or heart, just a fist always swinging
Fall on the sword, leave the body bleeding out
I don’t know what's worse
The thought that the world will die
Or that we’ll survive, destroy and repeat ‘til the end of time
“But it’s not so bad
‘Cause we’re still fine and hey, at least we’ll be last”
If that contempt is the common thread
Then that’s it, we’re better off dead
What does heaven look like
‘Cause I really need to know
What I’ll be missing buried down below
Burn out, burn out
We had it all and now all that’s left is the comedown
Forsaken, we shake at the sound
Burn out burn out
Shut it down, ‘cause our perfect plans were a letdown
So where is your faith in the fallout?
Open eyes, but there is no horizon
Allow the black hearts to thrive on sorrow and suffering
If there’s a god he’d better pray he never meets me
No consequences and I’ve had enough
If the clock runs out, promise you won’t wake me up
No meaning, just misery
Smashed against the rocks
Then dragged back out to sea
No bitter ending, just a cycle that repeats
Swear you won’t come back for me
