To The Grave

I've walked the halls of madness I've heard the jailer's laugh I've yet to sing the funeral dirge The only option left Risen from an inferno Of hopelessness and shame Walked the tightrope out Of it then shouldered all the blame But make no mistake I know it's always there It's always there The scent of doom riding neglect It's hanging in the air The only thing to fear Remains inside unseen Never disappears Stand guard eternally The only thing I fear Lives on inside of me Whispers in my ear To the grave eternally The broken record of my life Skips bodies of my friends So many walked that path with me It took them to their end Resting on rusty laurels It's sweating while you sleep It's doing push-ups in the dark With a knife between its teeth So lest you forget It never fades away Won't fade away Waiting for you to slip and Put you in the grave The only thing to fear Remains inside unseen Never disappears Stand guard eternally The only thing I fear Lives on inside of me Whispers in my ear To the grave eternally, oh It's always there You best beware Risen from an inferno But waiting in the deep It's always there The only thing to fear Never disappears The only thing I fear Whispers in my ear I'll take it to the grave with me
