Everything Black

Feel like death, feel unborn
Nearly a million souls to mourn
To the bitter end, or bust
And we'll fade away into dust

It's an age of unabashed mediocrity
Which brings forth melancholy
Is it you, or just me
Hanging and swaying from a rotting, dead tree?

Giving into sweet submission
Walking down the path to perdition
Will you take my lonely path
And walk straight into a bloodbath?

Nowhere to go when you die again
No perfect way to end
Just a broken beginning, thrown in the dark
And forced every time to watch it fall apart

Riding on the grim reaper's bus
Watching this city of kings rust
Falling into an existence so quaint
All too sudden, I just might faint

So darken up that big old sky
And let all us miserable ones die
Cause now I'm here, and I can't go back
And everything I see is so hopelessly black
