How long does it take
For the sun to shine through the rain?
Trapped in the splitting of a road
Pick the road with an afterglow
Can you blame them?
Everybody dies, but the noble few get to choose their death
Current of limbs levitating a victim suspended by his own troubled thoughts
Returning to a place before reality, liberation comes with a noose around the neck
Stasis through decomposition; the journey of life lasts all eternity
Could it be from the shame?
When sorrow floods in like a storm
The anchor of grief is dropped
Idly mourning what can't be lost
Sincerely regretting the vacant vessel that was left behind
Repurposed for what use? astringent nature is now released
Calcify the wretched soul upon misery's behest
Fate finally lets you see the curtain fall
Fading into the cold abyss rueing the day
When creations are mortified we're laid to rest
Listen before you end your life - take heed of the choice you're about to make
Whatever it is that you decide, emancipation will be granted
Tearing down the walls of a prison - the only thing to die is indecision
