"I don't want to die alone" I can't help but think As the world collapses around me "I don't want to leave this world before I leave my mark" As if the mark would be preserved In the wake of the oncoming end "I don't want my first love to be my last" As my heart retreats inward Further and further From it all "I don't want to forget" As my life blurs Into monotony And dread "I don't want to exist" And yet Here I remain

I Don't Want
"I don't want to die alone" I can't help but think As the world collapses around me "I don't want to leave this world before I leave my mark" As if the mark would be preserved In the wake of the oncoming end "I don't want my first love to be my last" As my heart retreats inward Further and further From it all "I don't want to forget" As my life blurs Into monotony And dread "I don't want to exist" And yet Here I remain
