Closer to the grave

There’s only one path that will take me there
I don’t know where, but this path is my own
I see the signs and they all say “beware”
But I don’t care, soon I’ll be gone
Now I'm craving, and no one will walk this path for me
That’s how it’s gonna be, I’ll never flee!
And when you see me hurt please don’t feel sorry for me

‘cause I will show you all the guilty ones
My mind is broken, you couldn't bear it for a moment
When you realize it you'll lose control
It’s almost over, I know that soon I will be on my own

(I should) I should have known from the start
It was gonna be this way (this way)
You were so close to me but now I see you running astray
(I should) I should have known from the start
That I would misbehave (I thought)
I thought I’d get so far, now I’m getting closer to the grave

There’s only one way to get what I need
I will be freed, with my weapons drawn
But before that they want to see me bleed
But I’ll succeed, never withdrawn
And while I’m walking they are saying that I should go home
Thou I'll keep on, until I'm numb
I'll look for redemption that may never come

‘cause I will show you all the guilty ones
My mind is broken, you couldn’t bear it for a moment
When you realize it you'll lose control
It’s almost over, I know that soon I will be on my own

(I should) I should have known from the start
It was gonna be this way (this way)
You were so close to me but now I see you running astray
(I should) I should have known from the start
That I would misbehave (I thought)
I thought I’d get so far, but now I’m getting closer to the grave

Here I lay, in a freezing empty place
I’m sure no one is gonna find me here
There is nowhere to run, accept the cold embrace
That’s how it has to be nothing else matters
When we are getting closer to the grave
