sometimes I want to die
but I will breathe and breathe
and hold unto my life
and oh,
my heart will beat
unto another night
sometimes I want to sleep
a circling, endless time
to give up,
and complete
my final graceless tine
and break all of my creeds
sometimes I want to fight
a faceless,
nameless foe
I want to beat and bite
and all my temper grows
under cold and moony light
but mostly,
I just live
and I just want to be
a part
I take and give
to my own sake and belief

and break all of my creeds
sometimes I want to fight

I want to beat and bite
and all my temper grows
under cold and moony light
but mostly,
I just live
and I just want to be
