An End Lyrics
This is how it begins
With the slow decay
Then a knife to the wrist
There to put you away
Ohh
This is how it ends
With the birth of death
And all that remains
Is the rotten stench
Ohh
Ohh
Don't rest
Don't rest
Live
Live
That's the end of that
What is done is done
No more aching back
No more flesh and bones
The juxtoposition of good and bad in these lyrics; and at times of life and death, is simultaneously harrowing and uplifting "Don't rest/ Live" and "No more aching back/ No more flesh and bones". Pure genius. Has to be heard for full appreciation; his voice takes it to another level.
Brilliant lyrics, juxtaposition of life and death i.e. saying that the birth of life is also the birth of death.
