A meaningless dance

A merciless cruel romance

Always seeking for a sense in a future that already decays in the past

Nothing we touch will last - it ends!

And gold won’t saturate our souls sold and degenerated

The crops of vanity are rotting vastly fast

Death looks so tempting

The end looks so promising

But I know he’ll betray me

His promises are as foul as his breath

I won’t choose nothingness

I’ll choose pain! I’ll choose hatred again and again

I won’t choose nothingness, I’ll choose pain!

I’ll choose hatred again and again and again…

A meaningless dance

A relentless and cruel romance

Doomed to walk this path in sin either blinded by a false light

Or blind by the somberness that lurks within

With hearts full of fragile hope, we look up to the stars

Wishing to escape the rope as we realize that their light may have already died

Like beggars we cadge for a coin just to pay Charon for the crossing

Devouring dirt in the depths of the dark

As if this could make the angels sing…

As we gaze into the abyss, it gazes back with a grin

As we gaze into the abyss, we realize that it lies within ourselves

As we gaze into the abyss!
