A wise man raised his hand,
Declares intent to speak.
Says nothing.
A crowd begins to think.
I pray to thee
Oh dear Death
Set me free
And take my breath

For the life of mine
cause of my misery
And flawed design
Was all done by me

Show me freedom
From this burden
What I have become
A nightmare I'm certain

So set me free
Once and for all
Please come for me
Please don't stall

The Past has passed
And Future is never
All you have is now
And It won't last forever

Let the past be a memory
The future, just a thought
Live in the present
It's gift that must be sought

After all it's meaningless
A life without laughter
A life, easy to live
But hard to seek after

You have to let go
The hardest thing to do
But must be done
For the life waiting for you

I had eyes but failed to see
What was precious to me
I had ears but failed to hear
The words of the ones who were dear

I had a tongue but failed to say
The thing that I needed to relay
I had a heart but failed to feel
Anything that could've been real

Empty and alone I am here
While death draws near
Thoughts of the life I could've lived
Crashes into what I had believed

Can I change before I die
Or will I tell yet another lie
Will Death set aside his duty
For me to enjoy life's new found beauty

Glory is the shine of a dying star
Hope for the men going to war
Where the casualties are on the rise
Blood runs and honour dies

Death awaits the soldiers arrival
Honour is the cost of survival
Dead men tell no tale
Of the horrors that will hail

In this city of lights/
The lights cover lies/

You try to live your life/
In a city full of strife/

In the day you see the sunlight/
In the night there's still light/

Where is the truth now/
We killed it, but how?/

We lie and call it bluff/
And we say life's tough/

We ourselves make things tough/
And don't know when's enough/

Teaching lying to our youth/
Every moment killing the truth/

This will go on for generations/
Spreading to all nations/

I am living at Death's door\
I wanted to live some more\
That is why I never passed to beyond\
And now I'm a wanderer at this hour\

I am killing at War's front\
Against my willon this manhunt\
I wanted more from this life\
And now I'm a murderer and shunned\

I am eating at Famine's dining room\
With a hunger that leads me to ruin\
I want more to eat, all I am is gluttony\
And now all I do is consume\

I have Pestilence at my core\
Anyone I touch sickens, more and more\
I didn't want this for anyone, not me\
And now I caused this horror\

Out of control, I'm not me\
An apocalyptic creature, a zombie\
Created to **** and leaved the world free\
Of this curse that is known as Humanity\
