There are things Only a trained eye can see While others Go through life so obliviously To see your loved ones Die in a car crash A thousand times Dying over and over Because the images just won't leave your mind A body burning In an oven Begging for someone To save him The heat slowly eats Away at his skin An unknown person Faceless Nameless Skinned alive Lies in a meat cooler Blending in with the animals Who shared the same fate There are things That only a trained eye can see A pool of blood With no visible source The grim reaper Has taken his hold on you And you can't run From these delusions That plague You

Grim Reaper
There are things Only a trained eye can see While others Go through life so obliviously To see your loved ones Die in a car crash A thousand times Dying over and over Because the images just won't leave your mind A body burning In an oven Begging for someone To save him The heat slowly eats Away at his skin An unknown person Faceless Nameless Skinned alive Lies in a meat cooler Blending in with the animals Who shared the same fate There are things That only a trained eye can see A pool of blood With no visible source The grim reaper Has taken his hold on you And you can't run From these delusions That plague You
