Only death

Restless days and sleepless nights,
Chaos sprawling through my world,
Locked inside a never-ending fight,
Peace's a long forgotten word.

All my life I've searched forever,
I turned this world upside down,
And torn apart, my lifeline severed,
Despair and pain is all I found.

Where I go, where am I heading,
Questions pending in my mind,
One answer like a fire spreading,
And throughout my pain unwind.


This pain is all I know since ever,
Trapped within a dying mortal soul,
Into hopeless and futile endeavour
To find the truth once and for all.

Where I go, what do I seek,
What truth is there to see,
Wounded, vulnerable and weak,
Only death to set me free.


See me now that I am only wretched shadow,
Still young but tired from this endless strife,
A blinded prophet who sees no more tomorrow,
I am a candle burning ruthlessly alive.

I need your aid though you can't help me
As the world is crumbling before my eyes,
I need a helping hand to try and save me,
But I know this hope is only bitter lie.

Look at me now through my eyes pleading,
Hear my pain what I scream it out aloud,
Torn itself apart, my soul is bleeding,
I feel my time is slowly running out.

I beg of you for no one else can hear me,
The pain to put to end is everything I long,
I need your help but you can't save me,
Now every hope for me is long but gone.


Now as I lay dying and recall my life
My heart is burning cold as stone,
My salvation upon the edge of knife,
I finally will find my way back home.

Where I was, what did I search for,
Questions shattering my mind,
The truth that I had known before,
Only in death which I can find....
