Blank, their state of mind The apathy they find leads them into nothing Rotting away, another lost sight today Swallowed into the nothing again Killing yourself, killing your will to be But you don't give a damn Just numb the pain The tightrope now is tread Ambition lying dead, lost in the fire so numbing Numbing decay sucks your will of life away Lost in decay you number your days Killing yourself, killing your will to be But you don't give a damn Just numb the pain Swallow the fire, breathe in the black Just one more hit could kill Fulfill the death wish in you Swallow the fire, breathe in the black Another life is wasted, another death is tasted If all the words I've said Could get inside your head Numb to the world of daylight Kill the decay, usher in the light of day Free from the fire you're finding your way Killing yourself, killing your will to be But you don't give a damn Just numb the pain Swallow the fire, breathe in the black Just one more hit could kill Fulfill the death wish in you Swallow the fire, breathe in the black Another life is wasted, another death is tasted Another life is wasted away Swallow the fire And if you choose to live this way I'll count the days 'til you're gone And if you choose to live this way I'll shed no tears when you're gone I'll count the days 'till you're gone I'll count the days 'till you're gone I'll count the days 'till you're gone away my friend
