Shock, disbelief stained the blackest of mornings Lost in a scene from this nightmare come true This wasn't meant to be the end of the story Now that it's done, the pain lingers on in the world
Life was an emotional knife It cut the flesh, it hit the bone It made reality a web of lies Life was a perpetual high Up on the wire without a net He couldn't balance so he took a dive
When Vegas called he got the message far away They begged this worn out king to play The mighty fall, inside the measure of the day It's pitiful, it's all in vain
Shock, disbelief stained the blackest of mornings Lost in a scene from this nightmare come true This wasn't meant to be the end of the story Now that it's done, the pain lingers on in the world
Life and its unbearable fire The night his mother passed away He poured his soul into her funeral pyre
Life, through unforgettable eyes For though he tried to face the dark He lost the battle but he never dies
He had it all somehow he let it slip away Much of his death is unexplained Now just a memory shines out beyond the grave Remembers all that now remains
Shock, disbelief stained the blackest of mornings Lost in a scene from this nightmare come true This wasn't meant to be the end of the story Now that it's done, the pain lingers on in the world Lingers on in the world... oh!
