Born To Die

I could never see the reason for it all
Knowing no one lives for ever
So I'm just going to live my life out to the full
Without the fear of the great ledger

Can you believe it
Can you conceive it
That you'll be up in the clouds with a
Choir of angels
Or if you're bad then
You'll be damned then
You'll be burning below with the fire
And brimstone

And so there is no need to worry anymore
There's so much hardship and starvation

And when, oh when was the last miracle procured
To bring the faithful their salvation?

Can you believe it
Can you conceive it
That you'll be up in the clouds with a
Choir of angels
Or if you're bad then
You'll be damned then
You'll be burning below with the fire
And brimstone

There is nothing you see...
We're born to die

And I just haven’t the conviction to believe
In all the prophets and dictators
They lie, they cheat, and they wickedly deceive
In the name of some unseen creator

Can you believe it
Can you conceive it
That you'll be up in the clouds with a
Choir of angels
Or if you're bad then
You'll be damned then
You'll be burning below with the fire
And brimstone

There is nothing you see...
Were born to die
