Nothing Matters Anymore

After all of this we’ve been dismissed by those who prefer to eat dirt

We’ve been gladly exempt, we are racked with contempt

And we happily wish you this hurt

My skull is on fire with barbs and black spires

My synapses shriek in the flames

Yet we reel with desire though chocked by coarse wire

Loosed by our raging disdain

I’m gone, God help me, I’m done, I’m done

Nothing can stop me, I’m done, I’m done

No fear, no doubt, I’ve bottomed out, I’ve lost myself, I’m letting go

No pride, no me, I’ve set them free, I’ve lost my mind and now I know

No pain, no death, they’re put to rest, we leave them here, we close the door

No earth, no man, now take my hand, cause nothing matters...

Oh, the stage that we soil, the plans that we foil, the joke that we play on the world

And you drown in the oil, all wrapped up in the coils

And crushed under the stones that you’ve hurled

Still we march through the tombs, through the darkness and gloom

And we shatter the columns of bone

And the world she breaks for the lives that she takes

She weeps as she dies all alone

No fear, no doubt, I’ve bottomed out, I’ve lost myself, I’m letting go

No pride, no me, I’ve set them free, I’ve lost my mind and now I know

No pain, no death, they’re put to rest, we leave them here, we close the door

No earth, no man, now take my hand, cause nothing matters anymore

The world is a husk to be peeled back and torn

My body a shell that now breaks

How I long to escape from the chains that I’ve worn

And hasten my greatest escape

And when I breathe my very last, don’t shed a tear for me

Discard the body that once was my prison, for I’ll have been set free

And when the trumpets call us home and I’m no longer bedded by pain

Our tears will be forever dried, for the author of life knows my name

So we trample the hoards of the pointless and blank

We will die for the truth in our hearts

No force that exists will tear us from His hands

Nothing will tear us apart

Though the mirror is dull, the reflection obscured

We look beyond the obtuse

And the world weighs down, beating us to the ground

But her efforts are of little use

The Anointed One has purchased our souls

Death is battered and lifeless before me

The truth rains down for the children of Christ

And the truth has set us free

And through it all we rise when we fall

Though the road grows more narrow before me

Though we ache, though we cry, never break, never die

The one truth there it sets us free
