X-Slow Death

Arise for tomorrow (Whisper)

THIS LIFE I AIN’T LIVING
V1
Things are so expensive
It’s eat or pay the rent
Before my paycheck comes
My money’s already spent 

CHORUS
This life I ain’t living is killing me 
This life I ain’t living is killing me, oooh-oooh-oooh
Killing me, oooh-oooh-oooh 

V2
This country’s in trouble 
The world has turned its’ back
Hear the people moaning 
For the hope they lack

CHORUS
This life I ain’t living is killing me 
This life I ain’t living is killing me, oooh-oooh-oooh
Killing me, oooh-oooh-oooh 

V3
Try to do things right
Find out it’s all wrong
The men pulling the strings
Are few but they’re strong, oh

This life I ain’t living
This life I ain’t living

V4
Lock up the house tight
Another weekend alone
Nobody cares where you are
Nobody calls on the phone

CHORUS
This life I ain’t living is killing me 
This life I ain’t living is killing, killing me, oooh-oooh-oooh
Killing me, oooh-oooh-oooh

V5
Another broken promise
Another broken dream
Broken hearts all around
Hear the children scream

CHORUS/TAG
This life I ain’t living is killing me
This life I ain’t living is killing, killing me, oooh-oooh-oooh, oh!

This life I ain’t living
This life I ain’t living is killing, killing me..

Oooh-oooh-oooh, Oooh,-oooh-oooh

Incoming Age of Melancholy // Astaganaga Variation Single Cut

A procession reborn. Old Hearse returns in its remastered form, carrying the ache and architecture of its original descent with sharpened clarity. This track is a sonic reliquary—where synths pulse like funeral lights and vocals drift like memory through fog. Originally released as part of Bleak Cathedral’s early archive, this version restores the track’s full spectral resonance. It’s not nostalgia—it’s ritual recursion. A hearse that drives backward through time, collecting fragments of devotion along the way.

Bleak Cathedral - Old Hearse (Album Version)

You have a free afternoon. You open the windows and sit down to read your favorite book, sipping coffee.

paged.

Thank you I hope you like my original lyrics song!
