partway along the path that all must tread
wrong turning taken in the dusk and muck
no hope to find the proper road ahead
so easy then to say that truth had fled
give up on life along with all my luck
partway along the path that all must tread
while many voices echo no words said
could quite convey how badly one was stuck
no hope to find the proper road ahead
darkness around the human world abed
so easy then the mortal form to shuck
partway along the path that all must tread
where none could scream from simple weight of dread
no light could come from passing car or truck
no hope to find the proper road ahead
the only message was you must fall dead
the world goes on no one will give a ****
partway along the path that all must tread
no hope to find the proper road ahead
