Not Long for This World Lyrics

All alone...
except for today
No surprise that it came
Just not this way

No love...
No love at all!
Heeding pride's call
The heights we must fall...Yeah!

Was a time...
Prayed for the rain!
Death before shame!
Death before pain!

"It" walks...
Right beside me...
Grinning "it"s teeth
Since you left me...

Not long! For this world!

In "it"s place I sought out love, who am I to blame?
Emptiness stairs back at me every God damn day...
Starving, freezing, loneliness now become my friends...
I shut my eyes to ease my soul, I see "it"s face instead...

"You must end your life"
A good night for "goodnight"...oh yeah.
Innocence...that tunnel is looking bright...

Memories now haunt my dreams, sanity starts to break
Grieving the loss of a slaughtered heart I long how it use to ache...
Mourning, grieving, hate filled seething, my future starts to swirl
I fear there is no helping me, I'm not long for this world

"You must end your life"
A good night for "goodnight"...oh yeah.
Innocence...that tunnel is looking bright...
