Time's up
—the bell of life
has rung the first time
Pile up your regrets
and leave them
at the next chimeTime's up
—the bell of life
has rung twice
Drag your feet to heaven
and believe
you have a choiceTime's up
the bell of life
has rung its third
Defy destiny
and take off
all you've ownedTime's up
—say goodbye
to the treasures you stored
Time's up
—will someone miss you
or will they laugh and say
the universe has done
a good job getting rid of you?Time's up
—all the hardwork erased
because Death is bored
Time's up
—will someone cry for you
or will you end up alone
in the memory of
what's supposed to be
your value?Time's up
—the bell of life
has rung and has been ringing
since the dawn of eras long agoTime's up
—will you look back with a smile
or will you curl in shame
because of the stains in your soul?
