[Pre-Verse]

I've been stiffed! One more fix!

How'd it come to this?!

Seen your past, felt your sins

It's death for the dead!


[Verse 1]

Watch your step, take the reins

And fill your veins tonight... Fill it!

Full of this evening!

Keep the flame, earn your name

Try to escape

All the hell that is coming your way!

Self-assured, there's no cure, lost what you had

All so sad! And I can't do anything!


[Pre-Chorus 1]

All the dreams of youth

The regrets of maturity

All the angels wept

At the loss of eternity, eternity!


[Pre-Chorus 2]

I've been stiffed one more fix

How'd it come to this?


[Chorus]

Your desperate attempts won't last

While you try to purify the past

It's all just curses and epitaphs!

Your desperate attempts won't last

While you try to purify the past

It's all just curses and epitaphs!


[Verse 2]

Watch your step, take the reins

Of this hurricane!

Let's feel the cyclone

With all of its rage!

I'm so far gone

Never mourn, lost what you've had

You're so far gone

And I can't do anything!


[Pre-Chorus 1]

All the dreams of youth

The regrets of maturity

All the angels wept

At the loss of eternity, eternity!


[Pre-Chorus 2]

I've been stiffed one more fix

How'd it come to this?


[Chorus]

Your desperate attempts won't last

While you try to purify the past

It's all just curses and epitaphs!

And epitaphs!

Your desperate attempts won't last

While you try to purify the past

It's all just curses and epitaphs!


[Bridge]

The days are long

The nights are longer!

I spend my time

Build a heart of armor!

I'm even stronger! I'm even stronger!

I'm even stronger! I'm even stronger!

Just hold on longer! Even longer!

Just a little longer! Now I'm even stronger!


[Guitar Solo]


[Pre-Chorus 2]

I've been stiffed one more fix

How'd it come to this?


[Chorus]

Your desperate attempts won't last

While you try to purify the past

It's all just curses and epitaphs!

And epitaphs!

Your desperate attempts won't last

While you try to purify the past

It's all just curses and epitaphs!
