We talked of scheming, redeeming endlessly
Chalked up to dreaming restlessly
Take me to that better Place
Please don’t hold it against me when i can’t see clearly
Squeeze wheeze, condensed breath leaves me


Hold me tight in your embrace
Protective fold, all right with no breathing space
Take me to that better Place
Don’t let me go, confidence seeps from me
Bone cold, consciousness leaks lazily


Keep your eyes upon mine until I fall asleep
Weep torn cries not another peep
Take me to that better Place
Broken and alone, just as we were before
Reopen and “Hello” gone, burst and torn door


I, covered in all lace, beautiful
You, ushered in regal black, suitable
Take me to that better Place
Smothered away, hold the tears back on such an occasion
Suffered astray, anxiety attack in stagnation


Take no haste in your departure
Never a race in this the final marcher
Too clever for fate, but I’m your martyr
Join me in your own pace
I’ll welcome you to Our better Place
