"Everything Rots" lyrics

I don't think there's a happy end for anyone
We were born in blood and we all die alone
It's so god damn obvious to see
Everything good ends in tragedy

Everything rots
Empires crumble and they turn to dust
Everything rots
Love fades fast, hearts covered in frost
Everything rots
The good die young and the rest give up
Everything rots
No matter how hard you fight it can't be stopped

All our bonds are built to break
A horrible truth to face, but I can't look away
This is for the ones, forced to breathe poison down their lungs
For the ones who can't escape, a generation born to fail
The ones who live each day with a noose around their neck
Knowing that each step might be the last

Fuck

I feel the end creeping closer
I feel the end creeping closer day by day
There's rot in our veins and the blood still stains

(Everything rots)

Everything rots
Empires crumble and they turn to dust
Everything rots
Love fades fast, hearts covered in frost
Everything rots
The good die young and the rest give up
Everything rots
No matter how hard you fight it can't be stopped

I don't think there's a happy end for anyone
We were born in blood and we all die alone
It's so damn obvious to see
Everything good ends in tragedy
