ive acquired a taste for money
ive acquired a taste of speed
and i dont think my life is giving me everything i need
the artificial light
the artificial sun
burning in my eyes makes me feel like im the only one alive

the past is very hard
the future is very weak
the present is carried on my back like a ton of despair

if only i didnt know that someday im going to die
i wouldnt need an excuse
i wouldnt need to cope
i wouldnt need to quit
i wouldnt need a friend
in a world without end
in a world without end, amen

ive fallen into my soul
into the bottomless pit
deeper and deeper i fall
and to lot myself go insane
wouldnt be very hard at all

crawling through my conscience
is like crawling through a sewer
deeper and deeper i go
and you know i die when i get too old

if only i didnt know that someday im going to die
i wouldnt need an excuse
i wouldnt need to cope
i wouldnt need to quit
i wouldnt need a friend
in a world without end
in a world without end, amen
