The feelings of sadness and emptiness
Are filling myself up as if
Running water fills up the cup
And runs over the top splashing all over.
I was left alone and hopeless with an emptiness in my heart
And some random thoughts about nothing.
Everything becomes nothing
When you become less than zero,
When your soul is just another cloud in the sky
Blown away and torn apart by the wind,
Burned by the sun and shit over by the birds.
Everyone has its own destiny
And the destiny sure has everyone alright.
These games with life are tough,
One will never get out of here alive.
You can smile death right in the face saying ‘Fuck you’
But guess who will be laughing in the end?
This is the fight for life and death as we are all getting closer
Day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute…
Everybody has their own clock to punch out
When their time comes.
