The Brighter Side Of Things

Welcome to the end
We've choked the world to death
The ground is scorched and dying
So is all the rest

Do not fear the reaper
He's only come to collect
The world is burning down
We're drowning in his debt

I will not take you back
I will not hold your hand
I will not say I love you
There is no better land

My heart is torn and mangled
I will never let it love
It's a pit of darkness
It chokes the sky above

My love was wealthy and plenty
You thought it was a joke
You took it and gave it all away
Now I'm fucking broke

I take back all my promises
I'll never love you again
Move on, leave, accept it
Our chapters' over, done, fin

You cry yourself to sleep at night
You hear it, the steady ring
It's the bell of freedom
The brighter side of things.
