lyrics

Overdose of lies
I can't bare to die like this
Trapped it seems in this concrete hell
Words only slow the decay

I know now what is here for me
Nothing, all is lost
Taken away to a distant hell
That's not so far away

"I can see what your god's trying to do
His successes and his failures
Cosmic laughter fills my soul"

Slip into the dark
Leaving now a sound
What is here will so be there
Until I've gone away
Breathing in the fumes
Of those yet uncured
Buried only deep enough
So from them you'll hear
Not a word

Overdose of life
Buried this quicksand reality
Sinking down I cry out loud
But not a soul comes to help

Leave me back now as time moves on
I don't want my part
This overdose without a cure
Why can't I live in peace

"That which burns in every heart
Goes out when faced with the dark
Consuming all reality"

Slip into the dark
Leaving not a trace
Time and space now trivialities
As I welcome unseen change
Your dead rotted away
Your god's laughter fades
His presence is absurd
As he speaks not a word

Slip into the dark
Leaving not a trace
Time and space now trivialities
As I welcome unseen change
Your dead rotted away
Your god's laughter fades
His presence is absurd
As he speaks not a word
Not
A
Word
