With life's four-way stop
The change in your shadow drops
Fate pulls you down for the count
With broken promises to amount
Time seal our ways to the heart of our hiding place
When all our life lies are crossed
Some scars can never heal from what we lost
To fail the test and the power destroy
To light the way where you have gone
For all your funerals to come
A requiem in death of some
And it seems to be that consistency is not what lingers ahead
But a virtue of the dead
One of these days
Hours pass the night's stage
When your spirit won't turn on you
The world shuts down with no replay to undo you
Breathing, lifeless, not afraid to die
Breathing, lifeless, you're afraid not to live
Breathing, lifeless, not afraid to die
Breathing, lifeless, you're afraid not to live
To fail the test and the power destroy
To light the way where you have gone
For all your funerals to come
A requiem in death of some
