Into the Great Nothing

Sadly aware I’m part of what I concider nothing

Suffocating us while we pretend we’re blind

Before tired eyes, those who cling to nothing

We embrace the echoes of our hollow souls

Values of life have changed currency somehow

Pockets lined with greed and shallow smiles of need

Somewhere we lost sight of who we are

Now more is more, less is nothing

All we need is ‘need’, a glass full of ‘me’

As we toast to madness we find fulfillment in

All this wealth is deafening, deafening our minds

As we all stray further into the great nothing…

(Here’s to health, here’s to wealth)

Corroded, corrupted… I sell my soul again

(Here’s to health, here’s to wealth)

Infected, dissected… I sell myself and die

Trapped in my addiction, outside looking in

The sound of silence, colours fade to grey

My remorse is not enough, I have gone too far

I’ve reached the end of my winding road

Now that I’ve bared my weakness to you

I beg of you to hear me; never follow me

See how my fragile shell is breaking

I beg of you to see me, see the great King Nothing

(Here’s to health, here’s to wealth)

Corroded, corrupted… I sell my soul again

(Here’s to health, here’s to wealth)

Infected, dissected… I sell myself and die

(Here’s to health, here’s to wealth)

Corroded, corrupted… I sell my soul again

(Here’s to health, here’s to wealth)

Infected, dissected… I sell myself and die
