Lyrics
Killing Time
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Arising in the dark
A filling soul to pay
Crawling for the light
Piercing through your brain
Reaching out for help
The help in which you pray
Searching for the answers
To questions which they say
Just killing time
Killing time is the final bout
Life slowly decays
From the depths of down below
Powerful rotting ways
Corpses lay out on the ground
Form a perfect line
Killing time
Rotten is the deadly birth
Strength turns to fear
The searching for the end result
Life's death draws near
A freefall victim to decay
Infection sets the pace
Rising from your loneliness
And the human race
