Schäffer the Darklord - It’s a Wonderful Death lyrics

Now tell me have you ever died before?
Have you ever realized your life was no more?
Have you ever looked down from
Up high in the sky
And watched your loved ones cry as
They all bid you goodbye? Well, I have
I’ve died in numerous ways
Hell, I die every other time
I step on a stage i’ve died in my dreams
Killed by things bigger than me
I’ve died a million times
But never literally and so I don’t know what
Resides on the other side after we die
And know what? Nobody else does either
Despite no lack of answers
From our world’s religions
With their ideas based in
Ancient fantasy fiction
I know we’re born then we grow
Then we’re old then we’re bored
Then we fight to the death and
We die by the sword our world turns black
But a bright light calls
And we move into it as
Our final curtain falls
Hey hey hey everybody, we’re all gonna die
So raise your glasses high 'cause
We’re all gonna die
There’s nothing to fear, baby
No reason to cry
Just live the hell out of your life
And never stop to ask why
I’m asking for ashes, I’m all dust or bust
There’s not a single theory about
The afterlife I can trust
Like what if they’re right
And there really is a heaven
With all angels and virgins and clouds
Seven seven seven and ever at peace
And everyone’s so goddamn nice
And for this everything in
My life was sacrificed
Forever and ever, for a life without sin?
Well, fuck that and fuck heaven
Now I’ll never get in
Hell is the alternative
The religious version and
An eternal life of Satanic subservience
Submerged in a fiery lake of brimstone, no
I know I’m evil, but I’d never
No I’d never wanna go but if they’re right
And I do go when my life ends
At the very least I’ll know that
In hell I’ll have friends
Maybe the big guy and I’ll learn to get along
Perhaps Old Scratch will even like this song

Hey hey hey everybody, we’re all gonna die
You in the back there, you’re gonna die
Throw your hands up in the
Front ‘cause you’re gonna die
Everybody outside walking by’s gonna die

It’s useless to resist the cold
Chill of death’s trappings
The reaper comes violent or
Silently while you’re napping
I might even die while I’m on the mic rapping
When the breath has left the flesh
We all know what happens
Our bodies grow stiff and cold
Like mold in a kitchen
Our corpses spend quality time
Alone with morticians poked, prodded
Embalmed and who knows what else
Then we’re painted till we barely
Even look like ourselves
Displayed in a casket
Gasped at by those who weep
Driven to a cemetery, buried six feet deep
Or placed into an oven where
Our bodies are burned
Reduced to nothing but ashes which
Are gathered in urns
Sometimes scattered rather than stashed
In a drawer
Often left unclaimed like all the
Does in a morgue
Unless you’re a twin or half a suicide pact
You’re born alone, you’ll die alone
That’s a fact we all are slowly dying from
The time of our birth
When the heart stops beating
We return to the earth
But first join in a chorus for
The void is before us
Before our final performance as
Corpses with rigor mortis

Hey hey hey everybody, we’re all gonna die
You in the back there, you’re gonna die
Throw your hands up in the
Front ‘cause you’re gonna die
Everybody outside walking by’s gonna die

Hey hey hey everybody, we’re all gonna die
So raise your glasses high ‘cause
We’re all gonna die
There’s nothing to fear, baby
No reason to cry
Just live the hell out of your life
And never stop to ask why
Hey hey hey everybody, we’re all gonna die
So raise your glasses high ‘cause
We’re all gonna die
There’s nothing to fear, baby
No reason to cry
Just live the hell out of your life
And never stop to ask why
