The Inevitable Doom Lyrics

Your life fades away
And the shadow of death you feel
Its unearthly embrace is welcomed
His hand rests on your pale white cheek

Into the valley of darkness
Where the dead sleep evermore
He keeps a bed for you
And locks you in blackness evermore

Screams of miserable women
Cries of undead children
Yearning to return home
And live again

But this is not so
Life is not possible without death
For without it no pursuit would there be
In finding meaning in its endeavor

Shall Eudemonia be mine?
Or shall I feel the sting of Abel
And be killed by my kin?
To dwell in Sheol forevermore

Shall I be the centenarian who finds life at ripe old age
Or the youth who perishes too young
Shall I die fighting, or die screaming
Shall it be in silence, or in peaceful gagging

Shall the Lord call me home?
Shall the reaper escort me there?
Who will remember in this life?
So that I might live forever in death?

Through anguish and sorrow
I await the inevitable doom of mine
Where death shall relieve me of my grief
So that I might not grieve anymore

Is it beautiful in death?
Or is it euphoric to merely consider
That a life after this one will satisfy me
As if nothing ever had done so here in this life
