Sometimes you lay in your bed And all you can do is cry For yourself For others For humanity Because what do we live for Besides to convince ourselves There is no oblivion Death is eminent And life is short And mine will be cut loose Sooner than most So what do I have to lose Besides believe in lies Those stories they tell us To give us hope To keep us going But I don't know how much longer I can go So I just wait For my time Because it's coming soon

Sooner than Later
Sometimes you lay in your bed And all you can do is cry For yourself For others For humanity Because what do we live for Besides to convince ourselves There is no oblivion Death is eminent And life is short And mine will be cut loose Sooner than most So what do I have to lose Besides believe in lies Those stories they tell us To give us hope To keep us going But I don't know how much longer I can go So I just wait For my time Because it's coming soon
