Death Anxiety
My body will be set aflame tonight
Even though my heart will remain, it's cold as ice inside
I feel my fists are buried in the pavement
Helpless to the rotting cancer, sent to ruin my life
I awake to this anxiety
That every breath, every step might be my last
I feel I'm growing numb, a slight chill to my flesh
Like one million knifes stabbing a hole right through my chest
There is no comfort
My surroundings bleak as night
The angels of death awaiting for me to lock me in their sights
Lifeless I fear the wrath of god
I hear the dead speak through the walls
Remember me, eternal sleep awaits me underground
I will not wait, for you to follow to the other side
Come on!
I feel closer now
To walk with the dead
Every night I fear is the last with you
So please remember what it meant
I feel I'm growing numb a slight chill to my flesh
Like one million knives stabbing a hole right through my chest
There is no comfort
My surroundings bleak as night
The angels of death awaiting for me to lock me in their sight
I awake to this anxiety
That every breath, every step might be my last
Every step might be my last
Lifeless I fear the wrath of god
I hear the dead speak through the walls
Remember me, eternal sleep awaits me underground
I will not wait for you to follow to the other side
