One day you're here, the next you are not
Once was remembered, but now forgot
You left a legacy once upon a time
But now your name is meaningless words on a sign

Played by the rules, got your award
A one way ticket, down to the morgue
Life passes by, but death will not ignore you
It'll give you due attention like the rest who came before you

Let it be known
Not a person here today was here two centuries ago
Lights out, a bottomless hole
The earth spins and swallows us whole

All the blood, sweat, the tears
All the fantasies, heartaches, fears
You kept score, but at the end of the game
No punishment for the pleasure, no reward for your pain

You know how it ends, it's all the same
From diapers to depends, cradle to the grave
Nothing really matters as much as you think
Your shallow problems only go 6ft deep

It's coming for us all, just beyond the wall
No dragon glass, no fire balls
There's no point of a plan of attack
Cause when death smiles at you, you can only smile back

It's a matter of time
So keep your attitude loose no one gets out a live
Many have tried, but no one escapes
Lunch for the worms, that is your fate

Consumed by the earth, withered away
Where your hopes and dreams become bitter decay
Even if you had some significant fame
When the sun explodes no one remembers your name

All the blood, sweat, the tears
All the fantasies, heartaches, fears
The reaper tugs on your sleeve
Says the party will continue but you have to leave

You know how it ends, it's all the same
From diapers to depends, cradle to the grave
Nothing really matters as much as you think
Your shallow problems only go 6ft deep
