With my life in your hands
I want to go back to where my life began
From a simple love in your heart
The love you felt from the start
You gave me this life to make a change
As you watched from range
You see me lift my friends
You see me do it again and again
Suddenly your heart starts to ache
As you see my body start to break
You want to bring me home
You want to end my pain and never leave me alone
But you know I am not done here
So much more for people to hear
I give my life to you
Let me give people a clue
Celebrate the love you give
To all that lives

If I was gone tomorrow
Would you miss me?
My death to hit your ears
Where would you be?
We haven't talked in years
Have you thought about me?
Bet you haven't thought to check
To see how my life is working out
Do I have to shout?
Come on and say what you think
Release yourself from my damaged life
My life is on the brink
When I leave this life
Would you miss me?

I hear your voice in the wind
See your face in a passing window
Every day I think I see or hear you
I have missed you since you passed
You was taken to fast
I think of all the things we have done
Of out our friendship had begun
We was totally different from each other
Two brothers from different mothers
Every day I am missing you
Wish could still tell you I love you

Longing for death
Wondering when I will take my last breath.
The pain is becoming overwhelming
Wanting to go to the heavenly realm
Standing in front of our father
In his grace I will be stronger
Let me be free of this sickness
Want to wake up from this darkness
Waking up in the light of the lord
So happy my spirit will soar

I seek my death
With the last of my breaths
I pray to be let go
I'm tired of this show
I want to be pain free
I got people in heaven I want to see
Up where my spirit soars
First will be my lord
Second will be my family
That I feel will be just dreamy
Third will be my friends
With that it will be my end

Slitting wrist
Feel the life drain away
No more sickness
No more pain
No depression or obsession
Feeling tired now
Body must sleep
Mind going blank
Sleep, sleep
No more time
Time to sleep the final sleep

Hiding in the shadows
Teeth all a gleam.
Waiting on my prey.
Footsteps!!
They Approach from the street.
Muscles tense!!
Mouth starts to drool.
Can taste the blood even before I see my victim.
I see her now
Young woman in her 20's
Closer she comes not knowing of her doom.
I prepare to strike
Mouth opens, teeth catch the light
She sees me and starts to scream.
Before she even blinks my mouth is upon her throat.
I drink her blood till I am full.
I leave her for dead on the ally side.
Go back to my shadows to wait my next victim.
Cause I am and Demon of Umbra!
