Lyrics

D.I.A.L. (Dieing Is A Lonely) Business by Ed Englerth

Even when the mourners gather round

The hard work belongs to you

Six good friends carry all that's left

There's no excuses to hold to

The choices are now thinner

And none are left for you

Be still, the game is over

And there are no final moves

It's no longer a matter of trust

there's nothing to confess

there's nothing to talk over

dieing, is a lonely business

your job is well defined

it's as narrow as your box

you can't even change your mind

N' all the doors are locked

It's the most primitive journey

Now your eyes are closed

The mortal coil is empty

It no longer serves as host

It's no longer a matter of trust

there's nothing to confess
