Nobody Lives Forever Lyrics

Everyone is condemned to death
Time of execution unknown
Yet seek that which is within
For the everyday fight in the horrorshow

Sword on your hip, cry on your lip
Charge upon beasts of your script
Misaligned verse I'm first to admit
But life's stage knows no delay

[Chorus]:
Death the ultimate reality
Death the ultimate reason to live
No time no cordiality
You've got to live because...
Nobody lives, lives forever
I try not to slip on my sweat
Nobody lives, lives forever
Nobody lasts that long

I know when I reach my life's sum
The addition will probably be wrong
That's okay I've made my mark
Pissed in public at least in the dark

When pissing in public one remembers
Traditions are passed on down the line
As a chamber pot is passed to your neighbor
its level grows higher everytime

[Chorus]:
Death the ultimate reality
Death the ultimate reason to live
No time no cordiality
You've got to live because...
Nobody lives, lives forever
I try not to slip on my sweat
Nobody lives, lives forever
Nobody lasts that long

Do you remember the times that you thrashed
Do you remember it was suicide
Like healing leeches we drew blood
To exorcise your inhibitions

So you'll reach the figure down the line
Who gives you the final wink
Now the pages seem to rhyme
As you forgive and wash in his sink

I don't know if that is it or if we choose our sides
But heads have drowned in oceans of fear
When there were only peaceful tides

[Chorus]:
Death the ultimate insanity
Death the ultimate reason to live
No time no cordiality
You've got to live because...
Nobody lives, lives forever
I try not to slip on my sweat
Nobody lives, lives forever
Nobody lasts that long
