Killing Time

How do we reflect upon a lifetime spent
Begging for relevance to our own detriment?
Hunger never satisfied so you pray instead
For inclusion in a mass charade, the cast are playing dead

To what end do we chase this role now
Audition for suffering, reality takes its toll

When all is said and done
We were all just searching for someone
It's a grand deception, the game of life
I feel it all slipping away, just killing time

As you wait for the elements, lost in the moment
You still can't tell me what you've done with any purpose
To what end do we lie to ourselves?
Audition for suffering, preparing for hell

Now my number is up, exposing the truth
All it took was the life of a man
To pass through the palm of my hand
Have I resisted existence?

When all is said and done
We were all just searching for someone
It's a grand deception, the game of life
I feel it all slipping away, just killing time

See death circle in the distance
Are you ready to die?
See death circle in the distance
I'm not ready to die

Was it fate that led me here?
Or something more, I can't ignore
For now I know it's the loss of love
The loss of love we fear, I feel it all slipping away
