    The document is a song lyric describing a downward spiral into addiction and self-destruction. It uses imagery of chemical dependency, mental deterioration, and chasing temporary highs until ultimately reaching a breaking point, referred to as "the end of the line." The chorus reinforces this theme, singing of burning through one's resources and time until the limits of sanity and life are tested. The closing verses bid farewell, as the subject has exhausted all options and come to the final consequences of their actions.

    The End Of The Line

    Need more and more


    Tainted misery
    Bleed, battle scars
    Chemical affinity
    Reign, legacy
    Innocence corrode
    Stain, rot away
    Catatonic overload

    Choke, asphyxia
    Snuff reality
    Scorch, kill the light
    Incinerate celebrity
    Reaper, butchery
    Karma amputee
    Bloodline redefined
    Death, contagious deity

    [Pre-chorus:]
    Hooked into this deceiver
    Need more and more
    Into the endless fever
    Need more and more

    [Chorus:]
    New consequence machine
    You burn through all your gasoline
    Asylum overtime, never mind
    You've reached the end of the line

    Time, choke the clock


    Steal another day
    Die faithfully
    Narcissistic fade away
    Twisted, jumped the rail
    Shatter the crowd below
    Breaker, chase the ghost
    From latest high to all-time low
    [Pre-chorus]
    [Chorus]

    Drop the hourglass of time


    Spilling sand we will not find
    As we gather here today
    We bid farewell
    The slave becomes the master
    The slave becomes the master
    The slave becomes the master

    Need more and more


    Right now and ever after
    Need more and more

    New consequence machine


    You burn into through all your gasoline
    Asylum overtime, never mind
    Dead hourglass of time
    Sand we will not ever find
    We gather here today to say goodbye
    'Cause you've reached the end of the line
    The end of the line
    The end of the line
    The end of the line
    You've reached the end of the line
