I lost my faith in all humanity
In this my hour of insanity
And in the wake of this tragedy
Search for my heart in an empty body cavity

To hell with em all
They made me feel oh so small
To hell with em all
Even while this world does fall

So when it’s over and you walk through the ashes
Think about the clashes and matches that lead to this madness
Look into the fire and flame
And think of this face with no name
And man up to the shame
Because it’s you who’s to blame
When this world is done
When this madness has won

To hell with em all
The made me feel oh so small
To hell with em all
Even while this world does fall

Do you give a s***
Do you care at all
Is this really it
Now that we must fall

It’s over
It’s done
We’re older – and bolder – and colder
But why
And how
Must we die
Why now

I’ve lost my faith in all humanity
In this my hour of insanity

So search for my heart inside an empty body cavity

This song/poem reflects my feelings, at a certain and darker time in my life. So, I hope you enjoy it. It is, despite its content, one of my favorite pieces.
