On wondering if it existed
That five alphabet word but what does it mean?
Kills me inside like amphetamine
As starvation rapes a nation’s patience
It puts a perspective in my head
Going to bed hoping we don’t wake up dead in pools of blood red
Is it the end or has it just begun?
Love is like nicotine
Kills me inside like amphetamine
As starvation rapes a nation’s patience
It puts a perspective in my head
Going to bed hoping we don’t wake up dead in pools of blood red
But that tiny sliver of hope
Is what saves us from a lurking misanthrope
Is what keeps the world turning
Is what keeps the Damned burning
Instead of rising once more
And come knocking on your door
For once that day will come
Life as we know it will be done
So don’t waste your time and don’t waste mine
Because when Midnight raises Her scythe…
You have no more time
As starvation rapes a nation’s patience
It puts a perspective in my head
Going to bed hoping we don’t wake up dead in pools of blood red
