lyrics

Everybody's looking over everybody's shoulder
The atmosphere in here is many degrees colder
Than a prison yard where the inmates rat on one another
To buy them some time
On the outside
Where trust's also a lie

Everybody's trying to resurrect a feeling
Or preserve some precious moment they recognize as fleeting
But they never will accomplish with their bargaining and scheming
The freezing of time
And it's just suicide
Even to try

Everybody's living only for their small selves
Enthralled by the illusion they live in their hells

Everybody's praying for some moment in the future
Of redemption or reunion or some other kind of rapture
And they overlook the fact that it is always now, forever
And then they start to die
Because they're living in time
In time, everything dies
