I am burdened by a never ending pain.

Since birth it began,

with death it will end,

but for now I scream set me free.


Not by my own hand will I go,

but by the will of the world,

and the darkness in side,

and release me from my endless night


I feel it creeping, staring and slashing,

tearing me down no man or medicine,

can remove this sin,

with death it will end,

but for now I will scream set me free.


I lay down in my bed,

I hear the whispers in my head,

I know I am reaching the end.


A tear falls, not of sadness but of joy,

It is almost over, sweet bliss will leave a kiss

And I will be set free.


I feel death’s grasp, warm and comforting,

I whisper set me free, he smiles and we leave.
