Invitation To Die Lyrics - Singles - Sigh

we fear the cold blackness that night represents 

and at dawn we watch the shadows flee the night 

yet our pleasure is muted before life's final event 

for we know that we face the eternal night 

our fragile lives are pulled by the strings 

of every impulse and desire 

the cruel unknown may be the thing 

that puts a cold blade to the wire 

a crowded street with a thousand faces 

may hold one with murder in his eyes 

for death can hide in many different places 

and shadows conceal the sharpest knives 

at each corpse claimed by an act of violence 

we think it's always "someone else" 

but what if no-one else was sacrificed? 

what if the victim was yourself? 

contemplate your own morality 

the curse that marks all of humanity 

you can never know your final moment 

but worse, you can never avoid it 

we all are born just to perish 

to loose all that we truly cherish 

a life turned to ashes... 

a life turned to ashes...
