Forever flailing and headed towards collapse Overworked, this world yearns for relief A glimpse of eternity; only a pipe dream We have nothing to believe We can never rest assured Someone listens in on every word I will evade I must see it fade Demise has replaced the twinkle in our eyes Avert the gaze, avert the gaze and cling Onto a futile hope for better days Set us free from this unease We can never rest assured Someone listens in on every word I will evade I must see it fade Death has a nagging appeal Keep on wandering until you're not under its heel The ensuing long night; a dark and stormy purgatory I will evade I must see it fade
