Damnation Play

So welcome - step right in
Tonight "damnation", free admission
into within
Take your seats and relax
The show will soon begin
No intermissions here, we'll go
All the way - in the damnation play

And in silent darkness, time stops
Ticking and we may behold
The forgotten fragments, of these
private tragedies we lead, all over again
And your twisted mirror image is
shootin' you with those same old lines
you did your lying with
Re-run the spiritual maim,
let's see if you can take
the pain, the worst is yet to come

Eternal damnation is a lie
it takes only a lifetime to die

You never grew up, you just got old
With bitterness in your heart and
scars in your soul
From a childhood playgrounds to
this pathetic scene
Bred, born and buried, you're lost
somewhere in between

Following the role cast we play our
part, either pulling the trigger
or covering our eyes with a scarf...
but rather yours
And now before the final curtain is the only
consolation... no suspended animation

Eternal damnation is a lie
it takes only a lifetime to die
