A Taste of Death
You live your life as if there are no consequences,
Throw your caution in the dust and take your chances;
Ski naked in the freezing snow,
Die laughing, it's the only way to go;
Dive deep into shark infested waters,
Spend sinful nights with Satan's daughters;
Run wild through these angry streets,
Dance on glass in your bare feet;
Howl to the moon, stare into evil eyes,
Fly with the tycoon, live on empty lies;
Roll the dice, snake eyes never lose,
Find your courage in this bottle of booze;
A bungy cord is your line to life,
Run on the edge of a bloody knife;
Play chicken with a raging bull
Just to make life anything but dull;
Laugh hysterically into the reaper's eyes,
Listen to hell and hear the damned one's cries;
Race across the storm raged sky,
Don't look back, never ask why;
Skydive without a parachute,
What the hell? There's nothing to lose;
Spill this powder and chop your dinner,
See an empty reflection in this deadly mirror;
Play Russian roulette with your daddy's gun,
If not for suicide, than do it for fun;
Only one will remain standing in the end,
Without an enemy, or even a friend . . .
