Cruel Joke
Pre-written and pre-determined
How do I lead such a meager existence
I live this life like I'm fucking invincible
Misaligned goals and a lack of principles
Programmed to die from the start
The only sign of life, our barely beating hearts
The grass is dead on the other side
Greener not as once implied
Circling the drain of life
Infestation of my own mind
Further and further, I stray from the path
Killing me slowly into the aftermath
You're just a forgotten face
Banished away
And now, you're just a forgotten face
Withered decayed
I'm dragging us down
Into the depths I dig
My hands bloody and torn
A soulless reality
Predator becomes the prey
I will claim my place or wither in the fray
Satisfaction is not enough
Cause if I'm going down
You're coming down with me
If I'm going down
You're all coming down here with me
If I'm going down
You're all coming down here with me
Yeah
Oh
If I'm burning down
You're all burning down here with me
This is a mass cremation
Oh, what a cruel creation
This is a mass cremation
I'll rise from the ashes like a phoenix
Fuck your standing ovation
Self realized
With no purpose but to die
God damn, what a cruel joke
What a cruel joke
I'm dragging us down
Into the depths I dig
My hands bloody and torn
A soulless reality
Predator becomes the prey
I will claim my place or wither in the fray
Satisfaction is not enough
Cause if I'm going down
You're coming down with me
How do I lead such a meager existence
I live this life like I'm fucking invincible
Misaligned goals and a lack of principles
Programmed to die from the start
The only sign of life, our barely beating hearts
The grass is dead on the other side
Greener not as once implied
Circling the drain of life
Infestation of my own mind
Further and further, I stray from the path
Killing me slowly into the aftermath
You're just a forgotten face
Banished away
And now, you're just a forgotten face
Withered decayed
I'm dragging us down
Into the depths I dig
My hands bloody and torn
A soulless reality
Predator becomes the prey
I will claim my place or wither in the fray
Satisfaction is not enough
Cause if I'm going down
You're coming down with me
If I'm going down
You're all coming down here with me
If I'm going down
You're all coming down here with me
Yeah
Oh
If I'm burning down
You're all burning down here with me
This is a mass cremation
Oh, what a cruel creation
This is a mass cremation
I'll rise from the ashes like a phoenix
Fuck your standing ovation
Self realized
With no purpose but to die
God damn, what a cruel joke
What a cruel joke
I'm dragging us down
Into the depths I dig
My hands bloody and torn
A soulless reality
Predator becomes the prey
I will claim my place or wither in the fray
Satisfaction is not enough
Cause if I'm going down
You're coming down with me
