Life Sucks & Then We Die

We're conceived
Then live long enough to die
Not a moment more
Not a moment less

Death is all-pervasive
The Reaper makes his rounds
He takes no prisoners
He's good at what he does

Life Sucks & Then We Die
We try to block it out
We still think about it
It's always there

Some commit suicide
Just to get it over with
The suspense is too much
They can't deal with it

When will it happen?
How will it happen?
Will we go to hell?
Be reincarnated?

Reincarnated as a slave?
Laboring in a field?
Or someone blind?
Or badly deformed?

Life Sucks & Then We Die
We try to block it out
We still think about it
It's always there
Some commit suicide
Just to get it over with
The suspense is too much
They can't deal with it

Life is full of misery and pain
And it's over much too soon

A somber but striking lyric..Loved this addition toward the end

Life is full of misery and pain
And it's over much too soon

Kudos
