DEATH
- Born Dead Lyrics / with translationsBrought to this world to wither away
Naive about the ways of life is what they say
Millions live millions die, more are yet to come
Living skeletons - where they come from
Born dead into this world
To starve and rot in agony
Born dead into this world
It's their choice, why can't you see
Life of misery, soon a corpse you be
As bones show through, nothing you can do
Relief does not exist
When you are born to die
Disease spreads fast across their dying world
Many cemeteries they will have to build
As process goes on for many years to come
A human waste land created when they are done
Naive about the ways of life is what they say
Millions live millions die, more are yet to come
Living skeletons - where they come from
Born dead into this world
To starve and rot in agony
Born dead into this world
It's their choice, why can't you see
Life of misery, soon a corpse you be
Relief does not exist
When you are born to die
Disease spreads fast across their dying world
Many cemeteries they will have to build
As process goes on for many years to come
A human waste land created when they are done

When we try to interpret the meaning, the song "Born Dead" by Death shows a very negative side of life, where people are symbolically 'born dead' to a universe full of pain and destruction that cannot be avoided, thus raising the issue of free will and resignation to such a destiny. Not only do the dead lyrics express despair, angst, social commentary, and anger but also they take the listener to a place of deep reflection. The song and the lyrics to it talk about existential suffering, human decay and death as well as futility and despair but at the same time the lyrics affirm the importance of these themes. The lyrics speak of death, misery, and suffering, which are very strong and might be upsetting for kids. The way a 'human waste land' is described and the phrase 'starve and rot in agony' being repeated make the whole situation so hard and dark that it is not appropriate for the average listener.
