 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

this is the bed that i have made 
this is the grave where i will lay 
these are the hands where i will bury my face 
i don't believe in wasting time 
searching for truth you never find 
nobody moves we live in the great decay 
all these ghost towns share a name 
anywhere, usa 
all these strangers look the same 
day after day after day 
this great decay, the great decay 
from birth to the grave 
and I've seen what it can do 
and I'm afraid its got me to 
cause i can feel it suck me in 
cause i can feel I'm losing grip 
day after day its static life 
week after week is sacrificed 
month after month you meditate 
all of the years that waste away 
this is the life that i embrace 
this is the world that i create 
falling into the great decay 
give in give in give up 
all these verses share a theme 
we don't amount to anything 
its the day after bloodsucking day 
this great decay, this great decay 
asleep in your grave
