Where Sadness Lasts Forever Lyrics


You can't get closer to the end

Than being in it

All aligns with finality

There's geometry within it

They say that God

Doesn't draw in straight lines

Maybe he's a drunk

An old man with shaking hands

Or maybe not

Now we're into the waters

That were always forbidden

This cold river, it separates

The dead from the living

There are doors out there

That should never be opened

There are plains of shade

Old God has forgotten

It got so cold, so cold

I can't remember what it’s like

To feel the warmth, the sun

To bask in its light

And is hell up above?

In the endless pool of dark?

Where sadness lasts forever?

No, hell is in the heart

Sitting on the same shoulder

Whispering in the same ear

The angel and the devil

Say there's no hell to fear

The angel and the devil

They finally agree

That the Bible and the money

Come from the same tree

When dirty deeds stay dirty

The good expire too

Sing "Say Hello 2 Heaven"

And pray it'll happen for you

It’s my jester's privilege now

To drink from pools of disorder

Not to cower, not to hide

To sing "it’s over, it’s over, it’s over"
