Everybody Knows My Name

I'm the one, I am ignored

When your teenagers are bored

Foolishness will hand their careless lives to me

They don't fear what they don't know

Through their ignorance I glow

As they flicker from this dream I'll set them free

Through cancer and disease

I'll take with me whom I please

No need to run

You can fight and face defeat

Through religion and deceit

And science and conceit

Try to stop me

But in the end I can't be beat

I'll be at it once again

You'll all face me in the end

It should be fun, as I swat you down like flies

So when it's time for you to go

Don't you cry, 'cause don't you know

It's a point at once for every man to die

But what happens when you're dead?

Ain't my problem but I've read

You'll burn in hell, for all eternity

Life wasn't all that great

But please make no mistake

It gets much worse

After you've met me

I'm the reason your sick ones

Pray to God as they lie there still

I'm the reason they cry out, because I kill

The different sources I may use

And everybody knows my name

Everybody knows my name

Everybody plays my game

And everybody knows my name

As I close my eyes to die

I will not fear, I will not cry

As I travel down this road

I gave my all, I took my load

As I lay my head to rest

Oh God, you know! I did my best!

Was it you, or I who turned?

Whose fault is it that I must burn?

Whose fault is it? Whose fault is it?

Whose fault is it that I must burn?
