lyrics

I thought I'd lost control
It was never there
The thin line between living and dying
Was never made clear
From worlds away
This life we're torn from
The living afterlife
The walking stillborn

As trumpets fade
And angels cry
Lives are torn away
Just begging to die
Shivering and gasping for air
Lying to myself
This life is nothing
And from nothing comes everything

Darkness surrounds me
I was born dead
Never, nothing, no one
I was born dead
