Detritus - Morbid Curiosity lyrics

rate me

What's death for you my friend?

The beginning or the end?

I see your nervousness, you're scared

Why's it wrong, I ask you now?

You tell me what you'll allow?

The fear that holds you weighs you down

Perfection, you strive to get

The only time you'll get there is when you're dead

Listen and you will see

Death's the only time you're truly free

The only certain thing in life is death

And the fact that everyone will taste its breath

The day that you will die draws ever near

Can you face it, without fear?

You'd like to tell me what to say

You'd like to hold my tongue

Keep those thoughts inside your head

But I'll talk until I'm done

Why can't you face reality, you might

Not see tomorrow

You know for me death's lost its sting

But will it cause you sorrow?

This is no morbid curiosity

My conversation makes you cringe

You turn and spit it out

Why do you always make a scene?

Why do you scream and shout?

Why can't you face reality

Society ignores?

Unconstructive criticism

Shutting open doors

This is no morbid curiosity

Why don't you listen?

Why are you scared?

Look at what you're missing!

Because you're not prepared, to...

Put all your life behind you

Stare at death in the face

Ignore societies excuses

Put them back in their place
