The City, A Mausoleum (My Tomb)

from The Wayward and the Lost by Beneath Oblivion

/

lyrics

I never,
I never believed,
In man or saviors.
This world in decline,
This world of decline,
The needle, the wasted.

-Absolution in addiction-

They speak control,
In surviving never whole.

Let them find god, to save them-
Let them know solace, in our demise-
We fight for nothing, yet still we fight-
We die for nothing. Worthless-

Save the deed of living down
to the concrete graves of promise.

The city gives and takes away,
Brick by brick, dignity and pride,
The thieves will strip us bare,
The vultures rise in our weakness.

The city sleeps for no man,
A morgue for the prophet,
the preacher and the poor man-
