We Lose It All When We Die

I have lived nineteen years on this earth
And all I've learnt of any worth
Is that we waste our time trying
Cos every step we take we're closer to dying

I had eight years of thinking things were good
But one day I was woken up and I understood
That life is just something to fill the void
Until dooms day when we are all destroyed

Nobody will tell you this, you must figure it out
Draw your own conclusion of what life's about
But I'm telling you this so you understand my suicide
So when you hear of my death you'll know why I died.
