lyrics

Gather at my feet innocent children
These warnings I beg you to take heed
Lean in close as I whisper, ya know...
These secrets that the devils tried to keep

Life is just a foolish game, oh child
We play by the rules just to go another round
We cry when we lose and say the rules seem so unkind
And love is the prize for the fool who has followed the rules when death dons his crown

Now here's another secret to remember
I read it in the writings on the wall

There’s a whisper of truth in everything
There is bitterness in the lies your father told
It may be revealed for only a moment and quickly it fades away
Like dewdrops on the spider's web before the morning gold

Raise your hands, lift up high your voice
Death is sure, so in life rejoice
Hell is all around, heaven is just a dream
Unleash yourself from this mortal coil and be redeemed

O! life is a losing game
Try and fail, laugh and wail, up and down, and around and around
And we cry when we lose and they say the rules seem so unkind
And love will burn away at the dawn of the day
When there's nothing to say
Cause’ you're dead in the ground

Our corpses, our vessels
Our spirits will alight
Naked and nervous
In the ruins of fading light
In flesh epistles
The meaning will arise
No heaven, just hell
In the ruins of fading light
We die

Our corpses, our vessels
Our spirits will alight
Naked and nervous
In the ruins of fading light
In flesh epistles
The meaning will arise
No heaven, just hell
In the ruins of fading light

Corpses, flesh vessels
Our spirits will take flight
No heaven, just hell
The ruins of fading light
These flesh epistles
Have you searched for the truth to arrive?
There's no heaven
In the ruins of fading light we die
