I blind my eyes to the light
how can anybody be content with this life?
you get out, you get up
and they knock you down
one big fall till you're under the ground
You'll see loved ones cry
then you'll watch them die
without real accomplishments
TAKEN OUT OF LIFE
You'll remember their smiles while it's all suffering
you'll seek joy but pain is all existence brings
until you lay your head down to rest
on the scaffold for the final test
Will it be one swift hack?
did they grind the axe?
or will you suffer - suffer - some more?
until you beg for the only thing you've ever lived for?
So now explain to me what I can't understand and believe
the reason for life if you never receive
if you only get to give until your cup is up
am I blind?
or are you just not wise enough?
You can get out
you can get up
but they will
KNOCK YOU DOWN
