lyrics

NO RECOVERY
Go into the madness of what they call the world
Try to keep a straight face and not let on too much
Don’t want to be noticed or to get in a confrontation
Just want to get through what they call a day

Next one might be better but that I kind of doubt
Unless I do something but that just seems hard
I’d much rather sleep and not get out of bed
Have to make money or I’ll be out on the street

Chronic illness, slowly breakdown of strength
Devastation still incomplete, rotting every second
Made out of disposable flesh, beginning to decimate
No recovery, just irreparable harm

Then my true insanity is what people will meet
But everything around makes be want to puke
Can’t believe its all come down to this
People killing each other as well as themselves

Everything begins to collapse
Transformation into nothing
Comprehension is now blurred
Life is now denied

Can’t identify the body, there isn’t much to see
Melting to the ground, now there is no more
This wide-awake nightmare has only just begun
People kill each other and they say its fun

Head keeps pounding harder, stress too much to bare
Confinement has set in, not to leave my lair
Think I will just stay inside and slowly Rot Away
No need to worry no need to fight another day

Still feeling tired from yesterdays work
Finally up and at em’ going to take care of shit
But what’s the reward for all this hard work
A bullet in the head from some lowlife jerk

Never know you’re going to get it, Just that you will
Whether it’s from cancer or from a loaded gun
Either way you better fucking run
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide

Still time continues forward, no matter how slow
Nothing but time and nowhere to go
Is this the end I’d really like too know?

Waiting for an answer but don’t know the question
Thought I had concerns or are these just thoughts
Mind begins to wander, as I just stay right here
The lesson has no end and that seems so clear

Can there be a conclusion, if there is no end
Are there still ways to cope that I have not tried
Running on steam soon to be bleed dry
Give me one more chance before I fucking die

Spending to much time inside my head
Trying to decide whether I’m already dead
Never had help and there is none in sight
But until the end I will keep up the fight

Time has slowed down but maybe it’s too much
Need some space with these walls closing in
Cannot breath, cant get ahold of it
No way to reach anything or anyone
Put my hands around the neck of this life
Have to get it in shape, Have to make it right
So many years spent just wasting away
Here’s to a few more that’s all I can say

Keep on moving forward because that’s all you can do
Can’t take the easy way because that’s just not you
Won’t do that to the people that you love
Together we will give this world a fucking shove
