Life

Your life

The one that you live


The one that you love

The one that you give

Give over to death in your darkest day


That day that you give

That life that you live

So dark you can't see

The dark you lived in for so long

So long you don't know

Don't know that it's dark


You can't find the light

You don't want to

Don't care

And when you cease

Cease to care

He comes


Death

Death comes

Comes to claim you

You give him your life

You give it gladly

Now that you've grown bored

Bored of this darkness

This darkness you craved


You craved it once

Long, long ago

A time you can't remember

A time you no longer know


Because

Yes

This darkness

So dark

So awful

Was what you once chose


Then you were lost

And now you are old


Too old to get out

Too old to escape


You've learned your lesson


Nothing left to do but wait

Wait for your death


You wait

And you wait


But once he comes

When death shows his face

You panic

Wish you could escape

Erase all that you wished, prayed, and hoped

Because now

Now is too late

Too late to go back

Back to those day

Those days you were free

Free and you knew what you wanted

When you wanted more than this

This silent death

Death in the sea

With fates such as yours

Fates they would destroy

Fates they would erase


But their fates have arrived

And now is too late


So, my dear,

Before you make

Make a prayer

Make a wish

For a fate

A fate you will

Hate when it is much too late

Think

Be wise

Do not become your own demise

Because once it is done

It is finished

And so are you.
