When you’re too old to reboot, but damn too young to die
forgot how to let loose, but refused to be tied
every joke is old news and you’re all done with crying
oh, then I welcome you to the purgatory of life

nothing to do, but full of unfinished plans
love wasn’t you, but can’t give up on romance
dust in your room, but leaving too big a chance
oh, hell, I welcome you...woah-oaoh
I welcome you to the purgatory of life

you wanna go, but it’s too late
too long ago, fucked up your fate
now all you know, just won’t relate
and it‘s a wonderful mess and you can never go back
and now you’re falling, you’re falling, you’re falling
you’re falling to the beat...oh!

the future's not set, but yours has nothing to add
the past is beset with souvenirs of regret
the present's a prison you can't move on or go back
oh hell, I welcome you, woah-oaoh, I welcome you
woah-oaoh, I welcome you to the purgatory of life

fire in the hole, but you’re too stubborn to explode
everything in your life up to now was
way below phenomenal and now you look around and there is
nothing left in your whole arsenal
and furthermore, the worst of all
you don't seem to know that life is irreversible
you've burned it all and now there‘s
nothing but a purgatory in between your birth and nursing home

nothing left to see on the horizon
nothing behind you, that’s worth laying your eyes on
this life is like a dream after a knockout by Mike Tyson
everything is free and you forgot to try some
the girls are fresh and sweet, but you keep strangling your python
your work is obsolete, like software by Miles Bennett Dyson
can’t find the remedy, now you’re stuck with the poison
but that would not be wise, son

when you’re too old to reboot, but damn too young to die
gotta pick up the pieces of this wonderful life
