me
cold grimy fingers rasping on the coffin of life
I scream but whispers escape
clawing my way down, down
yet all i find is more despair

I rant, desperate for a way out
but find only a knife or rope
All hope is evanesced
and i find only a void of terror

The only light love or link to sanity
snatched away by the devil himself
And her name erased from my lips
and her heart ripped from my chest

My only friend in my time of need
turns his back he does not heed
and so I give in I turn I die
not to speak, to move to live.

with my only brother
with my only chance
with my only love
with my only friend

i say goodbye
