Thought of decay

Lyrics

In the rules of your life
you will have to define
how you will die

As you plan for your time
you can try to defy
the thought of decay

I understand if you need lies
to keep your cool
I understand if you need lies

I like the idea
of living on forever
but it’s a decoy

A part of your glow
is that you’re temporary
you only pass by

I understand if you need lies
to keep your cool
I understand if you need lies

It’s all over if I don’t believe in the miracle book
I will take you under like you want to
but that is as far as you’ll go

If you want to be sure
of what’s beyond the border
you have to go through

It’s not a big deal
if my mind rots in the ground
another will rise

I understand if you need lies
to keep your cool
I understand if you need lies

It’s all over if I don’t believe in the miracle book
I will take you under like you want to
but that is as far as you’ll go
