lyrics

I imagine it's like sleeping, a dreamless lullaby
I imagine it's a long rest, when we have to say goodbye
I don't have all the answers, I don't have a reason why
But when we slip into darkness, I would like to know

Is there something on the other side, when we die?
Is there nothing there, have we always been right?
If a heaven exists, and there's a God above us
Then what happens to the people who see hell at night?

Is there a god above, will we see eye to eye?
When we meet our makers, what happens when we die?
What happens when we die?

I want to live, I want to try to stay alive
Fate won't bring us down, though I want to cry!
We don't live to die!

I never asked to be born, I never asked for this life
For the hardships it's caused, I wouldn't know if it's worth
Trying to stay alive, trying to fight this endless sleep
All I wanted was rest, but all it wanted was me!
When did I lose my way, to no longer fear the reaper?
To feel it's scythe on my throat, and yet continue to breathe
'Cause when I think of death, I think of sweet release
And what I wanted to live for, I no longer remember
But as the clock strikes 12, another dawn is approaching
To rest in peace, I'll find another reason to live

Is there a god above, will we see eye to eye?
When we meet our makers, what happens when we die?
What happens when we die?
I want to live, I want to try to stay alive
Fate won't bring us down, though I want to cry!
We don't live to die!

Father, Mother, may I
May I die?
May I die?

(To kill god, to kill god, to kill, kill!)
(To kill god, to kill god, to kill, kill!)

(I can't move, I can't think)
(When the feelings hit, I feel myself begin to sink, I feel myself begin to sink!)
(I can't feel, I can't see)
(If a God does exist, why does he want to punish me, to punish me!)

To live, to die, I want to try
To stay alive, I still have yet to die, to die!
To live, to die, I want to try
To stay alive, I still don't want to die!

Is there a god above, will we see eye to eye?
When we meet our makers, what happens when we die?
What happens when we die?

I want to live, I want to try to stay alive
Fate won't bring us down, though I want to cry!
We don't live to die!

To live, to die, I want to try
To stay alive, I still have yet to die, to die!
To live, to die, I want to try
To stay alive, I still don't want to die!

But as the clock strikes 12, another dawn is approaching
To rest in peace, I'll find another reason to live
I'll find another reason to live
