The Years Of Decay

you are killin'me, your mouth is movin' 
but I cannot hear you speak 
life's a tragedy, go on livin' 
in a world not for the weak 
keep your dreams inside your heart 
never let the pressure tear you apart 
truth is whispered on a breath 
loud enough to cover the smell of death 


never thought too important to mention 
livin' through the birth, the birth of tension 
never thought too important to mention 
livin' with the tension, tension, tension 


don't you understand too much tension, snap 
when you lose your grip 
too many demands start at birth, snap 
from the womb you're ripped 
leave your dreams inside, behind 
never had a reason that you'll never find 
tension builds another way 
gonna make you all go away 


never thought too important to mention 
livin' through the birth, the birth of tension 
never thought too important to mention 
livin' with the tension, tension, tension 


too much tension, all around 
too much tension, bring you down 
all the pressures in the narrow mind 
all the reasons you'll never find 
did you kill your father, sleep with your mother 
idolize your sister, were you jealous of your brother 
did ya kick the dog, were you beat with a strap 
were you really abused, were you fakin' all that 
too tense 


you are killin' me so many ways 
so little time to think 
life's catastrophe, my glass is empty 
and I really need a drink 
movin' all so very quick 
movin' so fast that it makes me sick 
let me outta here 
livin' ain't livin' with the tension and the fear 


never thought too important to mention 
livin' through the birth, the birth of tension 
never thought too important to mention
