Cheers

A toast to life and welcome death
The poison bite and deadly breath
The bridge we cross of no return
Light it up and watch it burn

Always watching, always waiting
Slowly starting to take hold of you
Your climax and end it starts creating
Planning to take another too

You can run but you can't hide
For so long to you I've tried to tell
It always comes like the rising tide
Leaving you nothing but an empty shell

The life drips out of your cooling flesh
It feeds on your mortality
The rush of your catastrophe
Makes it more fun to watch your distress

Shaking hands with the hooded figure
The one that's cold and makes you shiver
You finally see and now a believer
The patient, cunning and thrilling deceiver
