As I gaze at this hollow lifeless shell,
I wonder if my life shall end in a way,
That will send me to the depths of hell
All I care about, all I love, will they be taken away?
Life is short and all is never lost.
Every day I wake to horror and despair,
The end of all is hanging, heavy, borne on air
To what do I owe the honor of deaths repair,
For, I am the one, the true fair.
Life is short and all is never lost.
The light fades, the night creeps, shall all perish,
To the fates I say, take not what I have, but what I am,
Fall now into a hell, so bloody, battered and garish,
That all, shall forgive, not, the sacrifice of the lamb.
Life is short and all is never lost.
Is death not the end, but a new life
All the fear, and all the pain,
Compare not, to the fate of eternal strife,
Come, now to the rebirth of the slain.
Life is short and all is never lost.
For life to start, life must be taken
Every day, of every life, holds a secret,
Only those who listen may awaken
The dormant lies of the heart, direct.
Life is short and all is never lost.
Bring forth the true nature of the world,
Revealed before, the eyes of man
To bring all together, the mourners unfurled,
Come to see the face of the slain man.
Life is short and all is never lost.
To see the truth in the lightless world,
Brings closure to the life of the condemned,
Released from their mortal tether, hurled
Shall the after world be eternally damned?
Life is short and all is never lost.
The truth of the soul shall never be lost.
