Soul Survivors
Today I give my life away
This is the war I live
Add pain to your every move
Do you see my problem within
This my 42nd birthday
Alone, it feels even more painful
With no one to wish a happy tune
No presents to unwrap
No love, besides my old decrepit cat
Where does the love of family disappear
Will they ever begin, to see there abuse
The days of drugs and nightclub air
Is a world away from me these days
So young and energetic
However, did I manage
The whistle sounds and a life is down
Will the next whistle blown, be my tired soul
We were never the close family, I wished for
But don't stress, you had my heart and soul
This is the forgotten world, God isn't anywhere around
I have to leave, I seek this new magical world
They describe this absolutely perfect place
A land of joy, with no more pain
This is what they have been calling, Heaven
The only land for me now, its all my heart can dream
Will I ever see you again, dear old friend?
Your kindness and love will be your ticket in
Where relatives will be waiting, the skies will sing
God has fixed his mistake, welcome to this new way
Adam and Eve, have repented of that everlasting sin
It hurt the people of this dying land, and my heart now grins
Now you can begin to love with your hearts, freely
I can run free and become the real me
Will we stuff this world up as well?
How long do you think before we will?
Don't we learn from the disasters we've made
The children have nowhere to play
Do you not care, about our humans' world
This must be the start, to the end of it all
Taking off into outer space, we discover new worlds
Just to screw up another planet, how bloody rude
This is my heart holding all whats wrong in the world
