I lay alone falling into darkness,
the pain spreading through me,
cold ground beneath my flesh,

my blood spreading around me,
embrace the pain my soul says,

a knife i see but can not reach,
lights everywhere,
no one there,

my life slowly slipping,
fading away,
must i die,
can't it wait,

i stand as life fades,
tears fall like rain down my face,
so much must be done,
no time,

i wait near a tree,
sitting,
my mind calm,

the time has come,

im dead,
no longer here,
drifting through this endless night,
looking for my way home,

dead!
