There is no final resting place



There is nothing you can turn to
There is no one you can talk to
There is nowhere that you can hide
There is no office to complain to

There is no place that you can go to
There is no shade from the sun
There is no hope that you can cling to
There are no ideas that will save you

There is no shelter from the storm
There is no fence that can separate you
There is no army that will protect you
There is no new product you can try

There is no cure for you to take
There is no path that leads to safety
There is no reason to be hopeful
There are no books to see you through

There will never be a judgment day
There is neither heaven, not to mention hell
There is no more love when you are gone
There are no more friends after the end

There will be no one there to greet you
There is no place to store your memories
There is no such as heavenly afterlife
There will be nothing else to see

There are no warm, bright lights of home
There is no one waiting somewhere to see you
There is no path to a goal that does not exist
There is no final victory despite any struggle

There is nothing you can fight against
There is no more need for gentle humor
There is no sanctuary that can protect you
There is nothing finished when you are done

There is nothing that you really have to do
There is no personal effect that can long be measured
There is no hope for the future of any species
There is no possibility of our moral surrender

There is no reason that you should worry
There is only this, the briefest shadow cast
There are no rewards for being righteous
There is no punishment that awaits all the evil

There is a void without description
There is endless time that passes by without you
There is dust of unknown content scattered thru the cosmos
There is this light we see that shone so long ago

There is one spark among a trillion in a vast explosion
There is that last moment before a river joins the sea
There is no journey that you must take
There is no need to be prepared

There is no happily ever after
There is not even time that can be lost
There is no reason to be civil
There is no justification for any cruelty

There is no point to being angry
There is no happiness that can last
There is no role that you were born to play
There is no such time as “in the end”

There is no shining city on a hill
There is no cause for which men should die
There is no point to our destruction
There is no mandate from the heavens

There is no emotion with external meaning
There is no being guiding nature
There is no companion who will always be there
There is only one escape from that loneliness

There is no reason to respect others
There is no justification for lawless acts
There is no way to escape the cycle
There is no family where you are headed

There are no grounds for religious beliefs
There is neither a sad nor happy ending
There is no joy at your destruction
There is only life that knows not why

There is no gate that you must open
There is no bridge where you can safely cross
There is no pasture where you can safely graze
There is but darkness willing to accept you

There is no sign that you can search for
There is an unfolding, revealing nothing
There is no prayer that can be heard
There is true emptiness that cannot answer

There is no voice that could speak with you
There is silence which will enfold you
There is no loyalty that will earn your freedom
There is absolute equality in the void

There is no sin left when we are gone
There is always time to do what is right
There is no ecosystem to support our eternal souls
There is room among grains of cosmic dust

There is no tale that will be told forever
There is no excuse for wasting time
There is no garden filled with virgins
There is no reason to kill for god

There is no painting when we are not looking
There is no writing as you drop the book
There is no goal that you must strive for
There is no importance in the vast, yet empty

There is no rewarding afterlife for the weak or the poor
There is great equality of matter, in the spatial darkness
There is no final summing up
There is no one pointing you the way

There is this unknown from which you sprang
There is still its yawning chasm
There is no secret source of untapped strength
There is only cosmic wonder which spins the head

There is no loss that can effect you
There is no profit that can help you
There is no more barefoot boy who wanders
There is a spirit that fades, long before forever

There is this nothing you cannot imagine
There is only this interval to be considered
There is no leader you can follow
There is nowhere to take your wisdom

There are feelings that deceive us
There is short comfort in our faith
There are no reasons for those who suffer
There is no meaning outside our cultures

There is no need for us to be here
There is nothing left of each word I read
There is no tool that you can order
There is no offer to take advantage of

There is influence you can leave behind on others
There is no avoiding a slide into oblivion
There is a music made by the wind
There are no hands that play the instrument

There appears to be reason in the web of life
There is no guidance behind the scenes
There is harmony in our discoveries of the cosmos
There is no reason to a seek deeper meaning

There is an ancient rhythm to the earthly cycles
There is time uncountable after this earth has gone
There is no final resting place
There is only the scattering of a pitiless entropy

There is no god who somewhere awaits
There is no reward for the strength of our faith
There is no point to your grandchildren
There is an end to your line, not long from now

There is a reason we must hold to moral values
There is nothing they can be judged against
There is now a purpose to having clean air
There will be none when our sun is no more

There is a reason for the packs lonely howling
There is no action that takes us any farther
There is a difference between drops of rain
There is a way to identify grains of sand

There is a tiny planet temporarily holding fragile life forms
There is no way our imagination can fill the endless void
