Pain strife a silent knife Falling The end of a life Stalling
All I see is above me Everything else is black No key to get where I should be No way back I'd hit the sack
For the last time.
He fled I bled all red then darkness An unfinished life I led held back by an overpowering starkness
DEATH
I sunk into my bed an infinite bunk for the dead But I wasn't finished I would come out undiminished Life was above I was below unable to reach I have no speech I'm drowning in fire nothing more could I desire but I was inspired as I perspired. I thought that I ought to try to live or to die To end this suffering while my mind is buffering in this smothering of darkness
I try to rise I start to shake The despise and the cries and the lies threatened to quake and start to break
leaving me falling
and I was left falling
I kept falling
and then stalling
I found my strength it's not too late I inhale my lungs deflate I rose above the rest I'll do my best and won't take no for an answer. They claw at me wanting to be free
But I've passed to transcend the end and reclaim vitality in reality to take back all I’d been deprived I was going to survive and could revive I was determined to be alive and cross the boundary of life
