Lyrics Total Depravity (Live at Roundhead Studios, Auckland) - The Veils

"It don′t get no easier once you're dead
This whole universe is just mud and bone
And you carry what you can alone"

There′s total depravity staring back at me
There's total depravity standing right in front of me

I try to look away and I fail
I try to look away and I fail

Asked my mother what went wrong
She said:"It's been bad all along
And you′d better face the butcher straight
You don′t want to end up on his plate, so"

Try to look away and I fail
I try to look away and I fail

There's total depravity
I try to look away and I fail
There′s total depravity standing right in front of me
There's total depravity
I try to look away and I fail
