lyrics

Living in fear of eternity
while slowly succumbing to entropy
sic transit gloria mundi
your mistakes and achievements die with you

the stench of death clings to your skin
what would you give for one more year or one more hour
futility of life you give in
reaper’s shadow fast drawing near

the here and now
all that you get
a zero sum game

wormfood or ash
all that you’ll be
a particle wave

one day you will die
so don’t waste your time
you are what you do

flawless facade gutted inside
rotting away behind your mask of success
hung up constructed reality
forgetting it’s all just a means to an end

the stench of death clings to your skin
what would you give for one more year or one more hour
futility of life you give in
reaper’s shadow fast drawing near

the here and now
all that you get
a zero sum game

wormfood or ash
all that you’ll be
a particle wave

one day you will die
so don’t waste your time
you are what you do

becoming what you’ve been pretending
the ends that you’ve worked for forgotten
cowering behind what’s expected
the what-ifs are worthless you have no way back

the stench of death clings to your skin
what would you give for one more year or one more hour
futility of life you give in
reaper’s shadow fast drawing near

the here and now
all that you get
a zero sum game

wormfood or ash
all that you’ll be
a particle wave

one day you will die
so don’t waste your time
you are what you do
