Reaching out for your love
So hard
Pierced by a steel blue
lethal shard.

A love so cold, silent
And still
Into my soul it blows
A chill.

That tells me soon
I'll be alone
My beating heart will
Turn to stone.

If that's the way it
Has to be
The weeping earth shall
Cover me.

To struggle so just
Tires me
And nothing new
Inspires me.

No longer will I
play a game
Where I can't win
It's all the same.

If I go
Or if I stay
Nothing changes from
Day to day.

The sky so grey Against
My head
My only wish
That I were dead.

To lie beneath the
Earth so cold
Before I've even
Gotten old.

So very few will
Cry for me
Then finally
I shall be free.
