Lyrics for Song: Before You Die
Lyrics for Album: New Maps Of Hell [2007]
Porcelain and alabaster,
Decayin' ever faster.
Unaware of imminent disaster
Open up your eyes.
As you ruminate the hopeless ends of time.
Did you wander out your days lost and resigned?
Or recreate the universes in your mind?
Everybody is a bastard
The world is, like plaster.
Crumblin' apart from pressure of the blaster,
Waiting for a sign.
And the momentary pleasures take their turn,
As the wistful boy runs out of things to learn.
The episodes of yore are never to return.
Scare up some hope,
You're gonna need it just to cope,
You are the decision, numbers don't lie.
When you bite the dust,
Wasn't the purpose all for trust,
You'll never relive it,
Think before you die.
Yeah, think, think before you die.
Deficit and depravation,
In the wake of desperation.
We write the morals rectify the nation,
Now may be a time.
As you ruminate the hopeless ends of time,
Do you wonder how your life has been defined?
You know eternity can't ever change your mind.
You know eternity can't ever change your mind.
So, think, think before you die.
Whoa, think, think before you die.
