Archetype of Destruction

In this world where death is all we know
Years go by
Wars go on

I’m standing on the edge looking down tonight
Can you hear me
Screaming from a ledge for a sign of life
Can you heal me

And what have I done
Have I been wasting away
A state of decay for so long
A mindset falling apart
As I open my eyes for the first time

Sanity fades with each day
Time is ending
As I’m taking my last breath
Nothing’s changing

I’m thinking of regrets I was wrong in life
My mind betrayed me
It’s too late to amend what I know tonight
Because I failed to understand

Because nothing lasts forever
Someday comes a time when it’s too late
Years go by from nowhere
Can we start again

We long for what we’ve lost
Forgetting what we have found

Sanity fades with each day
Time is ending
As I’m taking my last breath
Nothing’s changing

And how to we go on
In a world where death is all that comes
Torn apart by a war inside
We fight our instincts
But hurt is all we know
And pain is all we grow

Now time has taken my last breath
But in the end
What has changed

Sanity fades with each day
Time is ending
As I’m taking my last breath
Nothing’s changing
And how to we go on
In a world where death is all that comes
Torn apart by a war inside
We fight our instincts
But hurt is all we know
And pain is all we grow
