I can feel my heart beat,
But will you check my pulse,
Make sure I'm really alive,
Don't give me pity,
Don't look at me in shame,
I need real life,
Not sad faces,
Darkness is near,
I can feel it all around me,
Thick,
I can't find the light,
A swift movement,
Something crawls past me,
It's no darkness, that I felt,
But a demon,
Yet to kill,
Demon of life,
Running away from me,
Sucking away all my energy,
Never will I grasp it,
Never shall I find the light,
Alas, I lay myself down,
Cold floors,
Stiff boards,
Thin air,
Darkness leaks around me,
Once more,
Demons rush past me,
Gun to my head,
One last whisper,
Lingers in my ear,
"Do you believe in God?"
