Lyrics

THE MESSAGE

[Verse 1]

Death wants to make you a part of it

You're coming with me

Saints, criminals, all just killing time

Death waits to make your peace with it

You'll be fine

[Chorus 1]

Guilt, innocence

Everyone burns out

Death is the message

Without meaning

Death is the message

Not the beginning

Bored when we're young

We can't wait to grow up

We get old, we give up

Then we pray to grow young

[Verse 2]

It doesn't matter if you're ready yet

You're coming with me

The rich, the beautiful

Everyone's in line

[Chorus 2]

Dead for a moment

Dead for an ice age

Why not let me be?

The taste, the bitterness

No one spits it out

Death is the message

Without meaning

Death is the message

Not the beginning

When we're young

We can't wait to grow up

We get old, we give up

And we pray to grow young
