The Carrier - No. 51 lyrics

"All aboard!" the conductor screams He knew he was the only one Who could save their dreams He had to pick who lived and died Solely by occupation He played God in all their lives He was the reason why A million people had to die on that day And as he stared into all their faces He heard the screams of those Trying to be saved He played God in all their lives that day Nothing's as scary as the earth crumbling Nothing could numb the pain of knowing tomorrow will never be He lit up a cigarette In hopes to calm his nerves And as the smoke filled his lungs He prayed to an unmerciful lord "Excuse me sir, I forget your name I'm just another nameless face That won't see another day Excuse me sir I'm sorry that my worst nightmares Are my only grasp on sanity I wish I could save this world from dying But now it's my turn to become another piece of matter Floating endlessly through the abyss above No love can save me." Time stopped It all went black "All the memories that I've had From my past escaped through my brain The silence deafening could drive one insane All that I've worked for And all the friends I've made Are just as useless as hoping A god might come save me No one can blame faith for trying to ease the pain But when the world ends, there will just be nothing Nothing."
