Run through the tunnels and chutes that we've built
To escape the night that's starting to fill
The air all around is tainted still
With the scent of the dying their screams as shrill
As when they first fell it's making me ill
To see all that remains of those we kill
There's only one path for those with the will
To escape now, to escape now.
My body is falling apart at the seams
The pieces aren't fitting like they used to be
Nothing that I do seems to work out well, for anyone.
I'm closing down
Everything must go
Slash all the prices red
Open the doors
I'm feeling generous
Look at my wares
Inside me you'll find everything that you need.
Suture the wounds and open up airways
Take a few pills and you'll be alright
These witch doctors throwing out fixes and remedies
When the only drug I need is a bullet to the brain
And you, you with these words of encouragement
Never will you know these feelings I feel
It's not coming back, the life that I knew before
Everything that I've ever had is riddled with decay.
I'm closing down
Everything must go
Slash all the prices red
Open the doors
I'm feeling generous
Look at my wares
Inside me you'll find everything
And nothing at all.
