We're born in this world and we live our lives 
For how long we do not know 
We do what we can, we can do no more 
Cause sooner or later we'll go 
When will it end, how much time is left 
Will I know when my time is near? 
Will there be a tunnel with a light at the end 
Or will darkness fill my soul with fear 

Oh no, I see it coming 
The end is getting closer for us all 
There is no use denying 
From any height we'll all soon fall 

On we go 
And on we go 
How long 
For how long we do not know 
Till the end 
Until the end 
Darkness 
When darkness is our only friend 

Can't take any more, I just want to know 
Will I die alone and in pain? 
Or will I go on while my friends pass away 
I think that would drive me insane 
To be born to die is senseless to me 
A logic that I cannot see 
To know your existence is governed by time 
Can drive you to insanity 

[Repeat pre-chorus / chorus] 

Living in this daydream 
Wondering when it will end 
Now I run away into the night 
Can't escape my fears as they fill me with fright 
I must accept the truth of how things are 
And hope the cycle's end for me is still quite far
