Meet Decay

(lyrics by John Oliver)

racing down the hill together, racing, racing, building speed
faster as the wall draws nearer, faster,faster, without heed
seek to turn to find redemption, seeking, seeking for a way
to rid my life of apprehension, seek the wall and face decay

meet decay, feel the clay moulding as the darkness lingers
seek forever, pull together, steer a course without delay

there the wall looms high above us, nearer, nearer, hear me scream
feel the force that pulls together, feel the force and wake the dream
sight unseen, the darkness lingers, sight unseen within the wall
break the chains that hold me tightly, break the chains and let me fall

meet decay, feel the clay moulding as the darkness lingers
seek forever, pull together, steer a course without delay

hear the sound, triumphant echo, voices singing in my ear
feeling love, the power that draws me, softly, softly quelling fear
dreams are dreams no longer fleeting, letting truth forever shine
love that's never, love forever, coming home, this home is mine

meet decay, feel the clay moulding as the darkness lingers
seek forever, pull together, steer a course without delay

(lyrics by John Oliver)
