lyrics

I'm staring at the sunlight looking so white and pale
Time is fleeting slowly when you are already dead
Lost in a desert island that is filled with nothingness
I wish I could fall asleep and never wake up again

I'm just another drifter whose sky is crimson red
I'm all dressed up as always with nowhere else to land
The message in my bottle sends an S.O.S.
I cross my fingers to be heard but only silence remains

I'm waiting by the lighthouse for someone to guide me
But nothing is at the horizon but an endless sea
I’m whistling again but nobody is answering
Death feels like a scourge yet it looks so appealing

A thousand shadows take shape in the sand
But none comes to life swept by the wind
I'm digging a hole and I'm smiling
I'm giving it a rest by burying myself

The grim reaper is coming but just seconds away
The hopeful coward I am turns his back on the ashtray
But it is just a matter of time before I drop the curtain
To take my well-deserved post mortem vacation
