about

'The chords for this song already were written in April and August of 2006 (just like the lyrics, and quite interestingly around the time that the title for the 2007 Misanthropicus Fanaticus!-cd was conceived), but I wasn't too satisfied with the tune. In August 2008 I changed the music to the gloomy mid-tempo song it became. The lyrics deal with life, mankind and heading for demise. Opening song of the In Concert And Intoxicated!-cd, but never played live.'

lyrics

One foot in the grave and the other in hell
Life now looks bleaker than I'm able to tell
It's a one-way ticket and the end is known
Reduced to ashes or marked by a tombstone

Too depraved to acknowledge what drives mankind
All humanity long left behind
Too deep in hell to live with reason and a plan
It's already clear where life will take this man

Chorus:
Hater of life
Reach for the knife
Cut off all ties
And head for your demise

Halfway to death, and there's no end in sight
Of avoiding the lies and avoiding the light
Dark are the nights and darker the days
That come upon a failing human race

Chorus
