Cold and hard the metal bites
A swallowed capsule ends the night
Scribbled words are all that's left
His life is gone
A high crime theftIt's just too hard
He's all alone
The noose was tied
And set in stoneBreaths were numbered
Affairs were made
His meager worth was left unsavedHis tears were hot
His breath was cold
A coward's story will not be toldThose who look
Will fear his name
They stop their search
To feel his painThey just won't care
And that is why
He left this earth
My love, goodbyeThere's only one
Who truly sees
The truth behind the lie of 'me'A coward's wish
Bled out in ink
To please move on
Raise a glass and thinkIt's what I wanted
And so it gave
You could not have stopped
My early graveDeath was sweet
The silence true
A burden light
For life anewThings forgotten
No longer cared
And so they left him buried thereOnly one was left alone
Hollow eyes stared down at stone
It was only one
But there they stood
Though no one knew
Or said they should"I still remember"
Is whispered soft
A teardrop staining heavy clothThe wind is sharp
It doesn't care
But still the figures standing there"I won't forget"
Is whispered strong
Although the grave has been there longNow, they turn
Their eyes closed tight
The stars above still twinkling brightGoodbye for now
I'll see you soon
Even though it seals my doomI promised then
I promised now
I can still remember our wedding vowJoined as one
From here to death
Just me and you
Till nothing's leftExcept you left
I understand
The blackness came
And you chose deathYou could not control
What you felt that night
And all you saw
Was how you're rightThe slimy hands
Of depression; grief
Would not let go
Haunted you in sleepThere's no escape
Until there was
And now we're here
The story's doneI could've helped
At least I'd've tried
You could have asked
I saw your eyesThey screamed of hate
Of loneliness
Depression crept without a traceYou hid it well
But still, I saw
And yet you left before the drawI needed love
You needed time
I tried to understand your rhymeI can't do more
So now we're done
I won't forget
You're the only oneWho stole my heart
It beat for you
And yet you left it cracked in twoBut like I said
Before this time
I understood
My tears are dryOur love's not done
It never was
I'll see you soon
I know because...This is it
The end of me
Just one step
Tied to a treeI close my eyes
Take a breath and count
I have to hurry
Or be found outPeople stop and look
Eyes wide in shock
My clock runs out
Tick tock, tick tockAnd so the end
The chapter's done
My smiling face
Will meet the sunI grasp you tight
As we look down
You're all I need
That's why I frownYou shake your head
Eyes filled with tears
And yet you push me from your fearsI tell you no
It's what I want
But still, you know it's just a thoughtI wake up cold
My heart beats quick
An empty bed is where I sitMy shoulders slump
It's just a dream
But still, your intentions aren't left unseenYou told me no
I have to stay
And so I will
My love, todayI'll start anew
Move on from grief
I'll live for us
Grin wide and thinkIt's what I wanted
You knew me best
Of course you did
Even past your deathI won't forget
That is a fact
But, of course
You knew my trackOnly up
Leading close to you
And then
In time...I'll run to you
