Lyrics
(That first telephone ring)
(That first telephone)
I lie here awake
My lifeless body that's cold
Feeling the pain
That's a cry, far away
Why is this prolonged?
I've already lived, what's to fear?
Now kill the power, become
Partners of sin
Alone in our decision
To unlock the door
And escape from within
For only death is my life
Escape from within
From terminal living
Cutting me low in my prime
Contract of death
Silent screams beg to be signed
You'll live the life of a saint
As you decide
Mercy kill to turn the tide
Now cut the power, become
Partners of sin
Alone in our decision
To unlock the door
And escape from within
For only death is my life
Escape from within
Escape from within
From terminal living
Through the years I've lied alone
Tubes through my body
There's no will to carry on
You'll live the life of a saint
As you decide
Mercy kill to turn the tide
Now cut the power, become
Partners of sin
Alone in our decision
To unlock the door
And escape from within
For only death is my life
Escape from within
Escape from within
Escape from within
