lyrics

I've got a fucking lot on my plate
And the truth is hard to swallow
I spit it out before it’s too late
But the starving is making me hollow

I don’t want to die as soon as I’m born
This one life is all I can afford
But here I am, trapped in the morgue
And there’s no fucking time to mourn

When every cliches taken and gone
There’s only one thing I can fathom
That modern life has done us wrong

Negating life, you're together alone
Devoid of light, in the place you call home
Closed curtains and locked doors
Creaking floorboards and rotting walls
You best stand back before it falls
Before it falls

I don’t want to die as soon as I’m born
This one life is all I can afford
But here I am, trapped in the morgue
And there’s no fucking time to mourn

Forever entombed and forever bruised
Squandering all that remains of your soul
Too late for prayers, you’re already in hell
You’re fucking born dead
You’re born dead

Invert your eyes; you’ll be surprised what you find
We’re all ghosts in these shells that are cloned
Place some gravity on this, it’s your vocation that you miss

I‘m trapped in the morgue
And there’s no fucking time to mourn

I don’t want to die as soon as I’m born
This one life is all I can afford
But here I am, trapped in the morgue
And there’s no fucking time to mourn

Sometimes you have to shout really loud
To make your voice heard
But fuck it, no-one’s listening
And I've got nothing left to offer this world
