In this life there's no rhyme or reason
Except this constant sorrow deep inside
All things die with the passing of the seasons
Nature's law, we are helpless to defy

Nothing much gained in this life so I've got not much to loose
Such indifference to my life and my death
Even so you know, my friend

I'll be hanging on till the bitter end, my friend

Time goes by as hopes are fading
For the future that I've held on for
Still no closer am I to reaching
Dreams that I fought through hell and back for
Where is the joy in this life for all the struggle that we'll undergo
No brighter days inside, still I walk
Holding the bitter course of life to attend

I'll be hanging till the bitter end, my friend
