To Kill a Sunrise Lyrics by Escape from the ZOO

KILLACOPTER

0

Lifes short, don't look you might miss it
No ones saving me from the incessant ticking
Of the second hand, counting down til they're diggin a grave plot
After all, it is clockwork
Someone dies and someones born
Never wait another a day for us to mourn
From the maternity ward [???]
And everything when everybodys doomed
I've been told before that time heals all wounds
I don't believe it for a minute
As the hands of the clock themselves attacking
Steal another day away
Carpe diem, I barely got to meet him
Before they went and buried him and now I'll never see him again
Don't you dare take those moments for granted
We've all got our limited time on this planet
And no one lives forever
I'd love to entertain the notion
That we've all got so much time to kill
But the sad facts that we've all got
One foot in the grave from the moment we were born
And time flies like a bat out of hell
Oooooh once we quit breathing, our hearts will cease breathing
The Sun will keep beating the Earth
Everyone, everywhere someday will die
When it comes time to fill a grave
Darlin' don't cry because
None of us exist on purpose, were just hurled into this circus
The tents collapsing and the ringleaders tired
Everyone, everywhere someday will die
When it comes time to fill a grave
Darlin' don't cry because
None of us exist on purpose, were just hurled into this circus
The tents collapsing and the ringleaders tired
Everyone, everywhere someday will die
When it comes time to fill a grave
Darlin' don't cry because
None of us exist on purpose, were just hurled into this circus
The tents collapsing and the ringleaders tired
And dead people all smell the same
