Decompose

I'm in a race with time
Afraid of what awaits
Chasing the moments that
Will take me to my grave
Will I make peace with all
The promises I’ve made?
You won’t remember me
When everything’s erased

No more than dust in the wind
Lost all the meaning within
The Sun will swallow us all in the end
Count every second that’s left
‘Cause I'm done wasting my breath
And I’ll embrace you in the nothingness

Echoes in my memory
A path never taken
Won’t set me free
Take me to a place unknown
Tell me what I need to know
It’s a picture of the person I should be

Are we designed to fail
In the place we call our home?
Under the light of a dying Sun
We’re born to decompose
