Everything To Nothing

Then you wake



Heart kept in the body bag, pathetic

Picture framed obituary faded in the attic

A shadow of someone you used to be



You've seen so many in this way

They swore you'd never become the machine

A long forgotten memory



Everything you ever wanted

Everything you never had

Everything lies forgotten and dead

Everything turns to nothing



Another day, another turn from the grave

Is it worth everything that you gave?

What a beautiful way to waste away?



Consumed by dependency

A lesson in despondency

A long forgotten memory



And then you wake



Everything you ever wanted

Everything you never had

Everything lies forgotten and dead

Everything turns to nothing



And then you wake

And then you wake



How quickly the master turns into the slave

Slowly succumbing with every dying age



Everything you ever wanted

Everything you never had

Everything lies forgotten and dead

Everything turns to nothing

Everything turns to nothing
