lyrics

Son, I ain't no tortured soul
Son, I ain't no starving artist
But I don't need either claim
To tell you that - I walk the lonely path

Girl, I ain't a wretched thing
I know my way 'round the heartstrings
But I need not prove a thing
To tell you that - I walk the lonely path



When one leaves vice behind
One cannot keep their breath
And when one seeks their light
They'll find virtue in death

And when one gazes through
Licentious walks of stone
They'll know the true path is
save the world and die alone
Die alone
Die alone
(I am the greatest)
Die alone
(Moralistic, egotistic)
save the world and die alone



The rabble make siren sounds
You cannot pretend they aren't around
And that means you must beware
And to say that - I walk the lonely path

You want there to be a way
To make life an easy parley
But I think you're full of shit
And to say that - I walk the lonely path



When one leaves vice behind
One cannot keep their breath
And when one seeks their light
They'll find virtue in death

And when one gazes through
Licentious walks of stone
They'll know the true path is
save the world and die alone
Die alone
Die alone
(Hey. Hey!)
Die alone
(Is there anybody out there?)
save the world and die alone



Fall in order, fall at once
And know you live to serve
You work for all who breathe like you
and owe more than you deserve

Cease your ways, youthful, trech'rous
In the name of the greater good
No higher power comes before
humanity's temperance withstood



When one leaves vice behind
One cannot keep their breath
And when one seeks their light
They'll find virtue in death

And when one gazes through
Licentious walks of stone
They'll know the true path is
save the world and die alone
(Our father who art in heaven)
Die alone
(Hallowed be thy name)
Die alone
(And he said unto me, yea)
Die alone
(I am the lord, jesus christ)
save the world and die alone
