To the Grave Lyrics

I've walked the halls of madness, I've heard the jailer's laugh
I've yet to sing the funeral dirge, the only option left
Risen from an inferno of hopelessness and shame
Walked the tightrope out of it then shouldered all the blame

But make no mistake, I know it's always there
It's always there
The scent of doom riding neglect, it's hanging in the air

The only thing to fear remains inside unseen
Never disappears, stand guard eternally
The only thing I fear lives on inside of me
Whispers in my ear, to the grave eternally

The broken record of my life skips bodies of my friends
So many walked that path with me, it took them to their end
Resting on rusty laurels, it's sweating while you sleep
It's doing push-ups in the dark with a knife between it's teeth

So lest you forget, it never fades away
Won't fade away
Waiting for you to slip and put you in the grave

The only thing to fear remains inside unseen
Never disappears, stand guard eternally
The only thing I fear lives on inside of me
Whispers in my ear, to the grave eternally

It's always there, you best beware
Risen from an inferno but waiting in the deep
It's always there

The only thing to fear never disappears
The only thing I fear whispers in my ear
I'll take it to the grave with me
